As a consultant, he has worked with directors, writers, production designers, and executives, contributing his research, world building skills, and character ideas that are then utilized in the story development and scriptwriting process.
Inguanzo began his career with an apprenticeship at Walt Disney Pictures with Dean Tavoularis, the acclaimed production designer of "The Godfather" films. He served as a primary aide to director Sam Raimi during the "Spider-Man" trilogy, and worked with Academy Award-winning screenwriter Alvin Sargent during story and script development for what were initially planned as the third and fourth final installments of the film franchise.
In 2013, Inguanzo directed and produced "Tomas Milian: Acting on Instinct", also executive produced by Academy Award-winner Bob Murawski, which was included in the digitally remastered Blu-ray release of Spaghetti Western cult classic "The Big Gundown".

The film, executive produced by Blumhouse Television, Impact Partners, and David Letterman, received critical acclaim on the festival circuit, culminating in Inguanzo winning the Writers Guild Award for Best Documentary Screenplay. He went on to produce the motion picture soundtrack for the film, which was released in August 2019 through Universal’s Back Lot Music label.
