In total, around 150 films have been produced in approximately 15 years, and the trend continues to grow. Currently, Germán Guevara works as a radio announcer and hosts artistic events (primarily Andean music). In the 1980s, he appeared on television comedy programs such as "Quién soy yo papá" and "El enchufe," where he shared the screen with well-known figures in show business like Adolfo Chuiman, Efraín Aguilar, and Analí Cabrera.
