Prof. Mercado recently concluded a week-long master class on cinematic composition and lens techniques at EFTI – Internacional Center for Cinema and Photography (one of Europe’s leading filmmaking and photography schools) in Madrid, Spain. He had previously conducted a master class on directing principles and techniques at the same school in 2019. He re-joined a roster of invited lecturers that includes cinematographers Luca Bigazzi (Sorrentino’s “The Great Beauty”), Bradford Young (DuVernay’s “When They See Us”), and Nicolas Buldoc (Villeneuve’s “Enemy”), among others.
