Darryl Wharton Rigby, the filmmaker, returns for his second appearance

nearly a year after his first episode. He discusses his position as an

assistant professor of production at Temple University Japan. He

introduces his upcoming venture, "Polaris," set to commence filming this

summer if funding and casting fall into place. Darryl directs his

creative energy towards teaching, granting his students the liberty to

make mistakes as long as they derive valuable lessons. We delve into

topics such as the writers' guild strike in the US, the influence of AI

in the film industry, and strategies for establishing regulations to

oversee its utilization.
