"To celebrate 10 Years of AITF, we imagine Africa as the first world power through the covers of a fictitious magazine.’’

Imagine: it’s 2034. The African Continent has been renamed "The United Republics of Africa" (U.R.A) and has become the dominant global power. The U.R.A is a leader and driver of technology, space travel, art, film, fashion, architecture and more.

U.R.A’s most widely read, most profitable publication is AITF Magazine. As the iconic Life Magazine covers illustrated American growth post-World War II, AITF Magazine covers relate the economic and political rise of the United Republics of Africa.

The familiarity of Life covers, emblematic of the American Dream, beautifully suit this parodic diversion. This is no Nostradamus inspired effort to predict the future. AITF covers are an ironic transposition of the World as presented in the international, traditional and dominant media landscape.

Mockups

The mockups presented here should give you a good sense of what we are trying to accomplish. The challenge is to raise sufficient funds to be able to describe the U.R.A. universe in great depth and detail: to create a full-on alternative reality that draws people in, makes them question the way the world is structured, and challenges them to rethink brands, media, messaging and power.
