What’s Next? Lyric Video

A song about reinvention and all that goes with it - change, identity, and the unknown.

This lyric video weaves together vintage archival (pd) footage and personal concert moments, building toward a climactic finale that brings the journey full circle.

Here for the music? Stay for the process.

Making it with RiF explores the modern day music industry with Alex Aldi. Who better? No one.

He’s a veteran and has seen it all, PLUS he’s making RiF’s dreams come true - so better listen up.

the signal sent into the wasteland

Let’s face it, social media is a barren unforgiving wasteland. That’s the nice version. It was meant to connect and it succeeded at doing everything but. Those who defend it are those that have worked around it, gamed it or haven’t checked their account in the past 5 years.

Executed by our Social Media Manager - Tyler Mills. Yes, his own father sent him behind enemy lines. He’s the only one I could trust.

Well, not the only one. I also have a secret weapon, Elisse Woods (née Mills), who is available via the Bat Phone (that’s not trademarked, right?) to drop social media marketing knowledge so lethal it cannot be condensed down into pill form.

  • Posts don’t automatically go to your connections/followers/friends.

  • All posts are “pre-tested” by the algo to keep you safe from ‘their’ content.

  • The first 10% ‘test audience’ gates social media success.

  • Engagement - a very long three letter word for hyperactivity. Compel someone to jump and move to Round 2.

  • Why?! You stay on the platform longer.

  • Why else?! Otherwise, why pay to “BOOST” your content?

  • Why else else?! We need real estate for all of those BOOSTED posts don’t we?

  • Bitter? Meh. Proof that ‘connection’ and ‘engagement’ are two very different things. And we’re choosing the wrong one,
