This is an example of a feature article from NME magazine. I have used this to help me understand how articles are laid out, to help me with my own article.
Article's are laid out in columns, to make the text easy for the reader to see and understand. It also makes the page look more tidy.
The feature article sticks to a colour scheme, which in this article is orange. It keeps the feature looking nice and attractive to the audience.
The photographs in the article are spread out, not just clumped together. This again makes the page look more tidy and also more exciting.
Text grabs are used within the text to give the reader a taste of what is in the article, so that they will be drawn in to reading it when flicking through the magazine!
The language in feature articles is simple, so it is easy to understand for all audience's. The interviewer usually asks the artist/band questions for them to answer, mostly sticking to a topic such as a new CD or tour that the artists want to promote.
