That how we came up with Nathan Studios,&quot; she remarked.</p><p>Ria said that her college degree has been aiding her in navigating her new role.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cx7D05xvn6X/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A466443.90000003576%2C%22ls%22%3A466196.8000000119%2C%22le%22%3A466200.10000002384%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="510" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>“If anything, I feel like my college degree has been a huge help now more than ever. Because I took up Communications and it goes hand in hand with what we are currently doing. It’s just been fun,” she stated.</p><p>Though she confessed that she is still adjusting to her new role saying, &quot;It’s been a little bit harder. There’s a little bit attachment when it comes to the film or the series when you’re an actress, and there’s a different sort of attachment when you’re the producer. That’s what I am trying to still maneuver,&quot; she added.</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/8/10/look-arjo-atayde-enchong-dee-sylvia-sanchez-attend-locarno-film-festival-in-switzerland-1013"><strong>READ: Arjo Atayde, Enchong Dee, Sylvia Sanchez attend Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland</strong></a></div><p>Nathan Studios is currently bringing the Japanese film <em>Monsters </em>to Philippine theaters.
