My Placement is taking place at Animal HQ in Poole.

Thursday – went up to design to be a helping hand. I assisted design by listing the exact measurements for the sample knitwear hats they had received and got to use a really interesting device used for measuring the circumference of the hats. I was also able to use my illustrator skills to help them change the animal logo label shown on the hat in one of their designs. (illustrator design document on e-mail)

Friday – went up to e-commerce in the afternoon to assist with validating on the online shop. I began by arranging the clothing so that as a customer all the *New Arrival* clothing was placed at the top and forefront so it’s the first thing visible when clicking on a tab.



I then had to check through every item to check that if it had other colour ways that they were showing under ‘also available in’ on the site. If the links were not connected properly I then had to update the site and make sure markers were within the site formatting to recognise other colour ways.
Lastly I checked the Zoom function within each picture. If this was not working it meant downloading the picture again from the Asset Bank – a online source where all the animal pictures are kept. I then head to re-attach the image to the page and update it to make sure the zoom took effect.
