Kuldeep Sah Gangola
Kuldeep Sah Gangola is an editor and post-production lead working across documentary, narrative, and branded content. Over eight years, he has edited features and series for Netflix, Amazon Prime, and PBS, with work premiering at Tribeca. He brings structure to complex material, finds the emotional spine of a story, and builds workflows that carry projects confidently from dailies through final delivery.
An Avid Certified Editor, Kuldeep’s experience spans lead editing, assistant and associate editing, archival-heavy storytelling, media management, turnovers, conform, sound, and post-production supervision. Whether shaping a scene or managing an entire editorial pipeline, his focus remains the same: protecting the creative process while keeping the work organized, collaborative, and moving forward.
He also teaches editing at the New York Film Academy, where he leads post-production education. Teaching continually sharpens his own practice—requiring him to articulate instinct, question familiar methods, and remain deeply engaged with how stories are constructed.

In the room with students.
New York Film Academy — Instructor (2019) · Post-Production Lead (2025)
Joined as an instructor in 2019, teaching post-production, documentary directing, and nonfiction filmmaking in the BFA program. Appointed Post-Production Lead in 2025, overseeing curriculum and craft across the department.
Editing with new AI tools, taught with the same rigor.
Kuldeep uses AI as part of the post-production toolkit — for research, transcript work, story structuring, and accelerating the unglamorous parts of an edit so more time goes to the cut itself. He brings the same approach into the classroom, helping students use these tools without losing craft.
- AI-assisted story structuring, paper edits & transcript review
- Research, archival sourcing & fact-checking support
- Workflow automation for repetitive post-production tasks
- Teaching AI-literate editing & production practices to students
- Evaluating and integrating new AI tools into existing pipelines
Custom Software, Built to Spec
Beyond using AI tools, Kuldeep builds with them — custom software for production and post-production needs that off-the-shelf tools don't cover. If a workflow is repetitive, fragile, or unique to a shoot or edit bay, it can usually be built.
Tell Kuldeep the bottleneck — on set or in the timeline — and he'll scope a tool for it.
In 2025, the Consulate General of India in New York reached out to explore a collaboration — using institutions like NYFA as a bridge to bring Indian cinema into American cultural life. Screenings, student-driven showcases, cross-cultural discussions between two film industries that rarely speak directly to each other.
Kuldeep sits at a specific intersection: an Indian filmmaker and educator embedded inside one of America's most prominent film schools, with a decade of post-production work spanning both cultures. That's why the conversation started with him.
It's a direction he intends to build. The gap between Indian storytelling and American film institutions is real, and Kuldeep knows how to close it.
