Conventions of an editors letter
Q magazine
In the editors letter a quote that
makes the reader feel welcome is “ in Q review, you`ll find our full,
unvarnished opinion” this makes the reader feel welcome because it directly
addresses the audience by stating “you`ll” this suggests that it`s certain and
you`ll definitely find an opinion.
The language used is formal “As stunning as it was, it seems charmingly
straightforward now” this quote shows
the language used isn't the Queens English however is does show the editor is
well spoken.
The words “charmingly and stunning” are highly descriptive and not simple words
so therefore it makes the editors letter
more overt prestige.
The photo of the editor links to
the magazines target audience because the target audience is for men aged 25-50 and for people who like rock music. The editor is Matt Mason and his photo fits in with the age of the target audience.

In the editors letter we are directly addressed which makes us the audience feel welcome the letter says " i know that you are all teenage girls" this makes the reader feel like the editor Emily is talking to us face to face and it makes the reader feel like she`s a friend. Therefore this makes us want to read on because it makes us feel like the magazine will continue to address us directly. Also the magazine aims for girls to be "celestial" and it says " we have some important decisions to make" the use of the word "we" makes the audience feel like we`re all going to make the decisions together including the editor which makes us feel welcome.
The editors letter makes the reader want to read on because the letter says "We only use real girls as our models and limit editing and photo shopping" this is quite unusual that the models haven't been photo shopped because in most magazines they have been so this draws the readers attention prompting them to read on.
The photo of the editor relates to the magazines target audience because the target audience are young to teenage girls and the editor Emily looks young and the photo seems like not much editing has been done to it, also it fits in with the magazines target audience as the photo seems like not much editing has been done to it.
The language used is formal which shows she is well spoken and the language is creative and it engages the readers attention. She talks in the present and past tense when she is referring to herself this makes the editors letter clear and effective and easy to understand.
