Nikesh, Editor of Rife Magazine - a collaboration between Watershed and Youth Links, Bristol which launched in June 2014 - has provided BCEP with an update about the project, which is actively looking for contributors who want their content looked at by industry professionals and want to be published, as well as providing skills training and employment for young people wanting to work in the media. Rife magazine is the new youth-led online portal for Bristol. Born out of a partnership between Bristol Youth Links and Watershed, Rife magazine is a new magazine for young people, written by young people. Covering film, music, art, culture, social issues and politics, Rife is everywhere covering everything Bristol has to offer its young people through all your favourite channels, like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, blogs, Vines, photos and more. Rife is actively looking for contributors who want their content looked at by industry professionals and want to be published. You can send us story ideas through our Get Involved section (www.rifemagazine.co.uk/get-involved). Our editor will work with you to get your content ready for publication as well as a social media strategy for the article and your very own profile page. We also work on partnership projects with different youth groups and forums, where we create discussion around a topic or issue important to them. We run regular masterclasses where industry professionals share their stories and give practical advice for breaking into the creative industries. These are also a great opportunities to meet and network with other young creatives in Bristol. You can find out when the next one is here: www.rifemagazine.co.uk/category/upskilling.
