Gudiño previously worked as the magazine's editor-in-chief before leaving the position to focus on making films.[1] His short films were collected into the DVD Curious Stories, Crooked Symbols in 2009.
Gudiño was born in San Diego, California before moving to Tijuana at a young age.[2] He began creating films in 2006 with the short The Eyes of Edward James and saw filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky as an influence on his work.[2] Gudiño has also stated that his Catholic upbringing also influenced his work,[3] and has remarked that he started his directing with short films released directly to film festival circuits as he wanted to "[develop] his abilities from an artistic standpoint" before moving to feature-length films.[4]
