ABOUT CHLOE CAUDILLO

I'm a Mexican American writer, director, producer, editor, and occasional actress.

 

A graduate of Second City's Harold Ramis Film School, I tell stories featuring dynamic protagonists who are resilient agents of change. 

Themes of identity and classism are prominent in my work, which often contain elements of comedy, drama, horror, sci-fi, and surrealism.

I write powerful, flawed female-identifying + BIPOC protagonists who must fight for their unique places in their worlds.

 

My long-term goal is to write, produce, and direct longer-format TV and Film.

​

My short films have been Official Selections at the Latino Film Market, Portland Film Festival, Chicago International Genre Film Festival, CineSol Film Festival, Official Latino Short Film Festival, Cleveland Concoction, Little México Film Festival, and Brownsville Latino Comics Expo Film Festival. 

 

I am a 2023 Netflix/LALIFF Inclusion Fellow and was a 2022 M Lab Finalist. I'm currently in production on my Inclusion Fellowship short film, a stop motion animation short, and a feature documentary.

​

I live in Los Angeles with my partner/frequent collaborator, Freddy Merentes, and our dog, Luca.

​

I'm repped by Schulman Management.
