Below is a typical double page spread in The Sun on a celebrity scandal. This is the typical layout of a two page feature and I have deconstructed the codes and conventions of this piece and also further boxed up the elements of the article to highlight the space dedication and priorities within the article.
Below is a spacial deconstruction of the same article; through the use of boxes it is evident to one what The Sun's priorities are with reference to space dedication.
1. Small article
2. Limited article on a local/regional level
3. Further images integrated and layered on top of the main, focal image
4. Promotional offer/voucher
5. Pre-headline, caption for the story
6. Caption for the main picture
7. The Sun logo, page number, date and website designed into the horizontal header
8. Main picture, three quarters space dedication
9. Headline layered over the image
10. Article text, limited and organised into collumns
11. Smaller images embodied in the text
