These videos were produced as part projects by student's enrolled in Eric Rustand's video arts classes. The students in these classes created the interview questions and conducted the interviews on location with the workers. As student projects created over a period of a few years and students, the videos show slightly varied styles and a progression in depth and production quality as they gained experience with the video creation process and equipment.

The MREPBC is grateful for receiving permission to host these videos on its Web site, so that other students can learn more about the exciting career opportunities in BC's minerals industry. Thank you to Eric Rustand for his direction on this projects, the students who created the videos, and a special thanks to the "stars" of the interviews, BC's valuable minerals industry workers.
