Young Ideas

I've had my first (allbeit very short, due to so many bank holidays!) week at Young Ideas, Ashbourne. I have my own little studio, with an Apple Mac, digital camera and mannequin (who's very heavy...) so that I can photograph and edit pictures of garments to be sold on the website. I am also in charge of uploading the relevant information onto the website. I've already noticed quite a few issues with the site - I feel that it needs to be more uniform in the way that the writing and pictures are laid out, and also, there are many grammatical mistakes. My friend who lives and works in London told me that if you know the right people, you can freelance as a copywriter, for editorials. Apparently it's well paid, and I need to find out more!

Back to Young Ideas, and I'm working hard to learn the ropes! I have a lot of responsability, and I'm being paid, so I want to make an excellent impression.

UPDATE:

At work yesterday I received a phone call from Burberry head office in London! I had uploaded my C.V. to their website a while a go, and they wanted to talk to me about a temporary role in their head office! I would have loved to have gone for it, Burberry head office is AMAZING, but it clashed with my Young Ideas internship, so it was a no for now. Hopefully I can try again afterwards.
