Jose Mercado, UCLA alumnus

Bruins are bumping in to each other at every turn in Park City during the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Bob Rosen, Dean, School of Theater, Film and Television, was leaving a screening when he reunited with Jose Mercado, MFA ‘00 who is in town to launch the Cinemocracy.com film festival.

A professor at the University of Colorado School of Film, Theater and Video, Mercado is also visiting Utah as a representative of the Denver Cultural Affairs Commission. The Cinemocracy Film Festival is set to coincide with the Democratic National Convention later this year in Denver. He’s seeking films that convey the meaning of democracy to include in the festival.
