There is a letter from a member of the editorial team down the left-hand side - around 200 words. Use of a photo and handwriting font for greeting and signature. The magazine logo, date and issue number are small, in the top left-hand corner of the page. There is a large photo of Joe McElderry with caption, and some smaller pictures with captions. The inset picture of Rihanna has no caption, but corresponds with the article that is listed next to her head. The list of magazine content is split into sections, and each section's heading is in a different-coloured box. The colours of each section are used for the page numbers of each article inside the respective sections. There is a false perforation line between the editor's letter and the contents themselves.
Connotative
Chatty, friendly tone to letter makes reader feel included and welcome. Handwriting font and picture emphasise connection between magazine and reader. Logo, date and issue number are unobtrusive in the top corner, not impinging on the content of the page. The captions or corresponding articles to photos reinforce the idea of a friendly connection between the reader and magazine. The colour scheme on the page creates a sense of cohesion and holds the page together, as well as making it easy for the reader to find what they are looking for.
