9. Feature page summary:
• In bottom left corner the title is often put in the magazine and date of issue, meeting the informational
needs of the magazine.

sophisticated style. However I did like the look of putting the title in smaller font in the top right corner
giving it less focus on the page.
• A news feature is often used as the opening feature page, I think I will stick to this convention.
• Sub feature making up its own column on the right side of the magazine, goes with the codes and
conventions of a regional magazine feature page. I liked the sub feature ‘quiz’ as thought it was fun and
appealed to a wider range of audiences.

each article for the reader.
• Image linked to each article to give more of a visual interaction for the audience. Also helping them be part
of the article more. More images more reader friendly.
• Sometimes sub titles were put into different fonts and sizes I thought it made the page look scruffy and
preferred when they were all the same.
