This study critically examined the representation and experiences of minority entertainment workers (focusing on extras) in the Vancouver film industry. My research attempted to understand the experiences of minority film employees, both from the perspective of the minority workers and the cultural producers (i.e. directors, producers, etc.) themselves.
It is my hope that the results of this study will help to better understand one of the largest and most important industries in Vancouver from the experiential perspective of a group that has been traditionally both academically and culturally ignored.
