He was born in 1895 and made his directorial debut in the silent movie film Ang Magpapawid (The Roofmaker).
After the "talkies" came to the Philippines, he directed Mahiwagang Biyolin (The Magical Violin), which is a semi-fantasy movie together with a new face, Manuel Conde, who would become a great actor.
Conchu made one horror-flick, Sumpa ng Aswang (Curse of the Devil) with Monang Carvajal and a nationalistic film, Hagase Tu Voluntad.
