Planning ideas (finalized).

Genre:
Traditional Nigerian (igbo) highlife 

Mast head:
I want the mast head to relate to the word 'african' or 'good vibe' because I want to keep the originality of where the magazine will stem from and what sound the genre created. 

Names thought of
-Africaan Beat.
-Vibrant 
-Highlife 
-Afrivibe

Miss-en-scene: 
-ombre masthead
-orange-yellow (warm colour) colour scheme
-Model located in the middle.
-Minimal layout

Photography:
Mid shot/outer shoot so it's enough for sell lines and banners to be added and to include what the artist looks like could make the cover look more intriguing.

Front cover story:
The main story will be about discovering a young traditional African artist emerging from contemporary society filled with Grime and Hop, who delved way back to there roots. 

Headline:
"Hello, I'm (name of artist) chidera"
"Welcome to the africa"
"Outsider"
