Film scoring
A turning point in Guzman's career occurred with the 2014 film Quiero ser fiel. American director Joe Menendez was looking for someone to score Quiero ser fiel, and the producer knew Guzman from a mutual friend and asked him to do a demo. Menendez was impressed by Guzman's work and hired him to score Quiero ser fiel. A year after Quiero ser fiel, Guzman was asked to compose the score for Joe Menendez's Ladrones. Ladrones’ instrumentation consisted mostly of synthesizers, samplers and guitars played by Guzman. It also used live musicians for the strings and the brass sections. Guzman was approached to compose the score for the 2018 film Veneno: Primera caída – El relámpago de Jack. Guzman won a Premio La Silla for Best Original Score.
