L.I.I.A.R Analysis of a contents page

Situated at the very top of the page is the phrase ''Inside this weeks'' this illustrates to the reader that this page is primarily for kickers and showing what articles are featured in this weeks edition, however it can also be used for advertisement's such as getting ''NME for just £74.99!''. The writing naming the articles on the page is all very clear and in block sans serif writing so it's read effortlessly on first glance, however quotations are apparent through the usage of serif writing within quotation marks, these are small teasers to the stories and entice the reader into that particular story. Next to the kickers is the location of the story, this is done so that the magazine is simple to read. Dotted around the contents page are thumbnail pictures relating to the stories and helping to illustrate who the articles are about and what they involve. These make the magazine look more visually appealing too. On the right side of the page is that kicker regarding the John Lennon story featured on the front, this ties both together. Language techniques are used such as ''a tribute to the original rock'n'roll star''
