TOPIC: FOLLOW YOUR EXCITEMENT: CREATE THE WORLD YOU PREFER TO LIVE INAfter experiencing two, close, broad-daylight UFO sightings, Darryl Anka began to research the subject as well as becoming familiar with an array of metaphysical topics, including channeling.His path led him to become a channel for an extraterrestrial entity called Bashar, which is an Arabic word that means “messenger.” Darryl has channeled Bashar’s information internationally for the past 29 years, providing powerful methods by which people can change their lives in positive ways. Bashar’s information has been published in over 20 books in the U.S. and Japan and hundreds of CDs and DVDs have been distributed worldwide by April Rochelle of Bashar Communications. In addition to his channeling career, Darryl also has over 30 years of experience in miniature effects, storyboards, sets and designs on three Star Trek films, Iron Man, The Aviator, Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At World’s End, I Robot, Live Free or Die Hard and Flags of our Fathers among several others. Over the past 5 years, Darryl has shifted his career to writing, directing and producing and has had one feature film produced by Nu Image Entertainment, two scripts optioned by AMI Productions and the Mutual Film Company and recently shot his first film as writer-director-producer called “Dearly Departed” – a fictional documentary shot as if the crew took a camera into the afterlife and interviewed the spirits of people who’ve passed on to get their insights on life after death. “Dearly Departed” is now completed and has been entered into several film festivals. Darryl is developing a number of other feature film projects along with his wife and co-producer, Erica Jordan, at their Los Angeles production company, Zia Films.
