Kewal Karia

I'm a Mumbai-based cinematographer with a sharp eye for story and a love for the craft. My work spans documentaries, short films, advertisements, and music videos—each project a new chance to explore mood, movement, and meaning through the lens.

​

I hold a Bachelor’s in Creative Arts in Film and Video from the Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology, Bangalore. Starting out as an assistant cinematographer and editor gave me a well-rounded view of the filmmaking process and a deep respect for every frame. Over the years, working with diverse brands and shooting in varied conditions has shaped me into a versatile visual storyteller, comfortable across genres and formats.

​

Currently, I work in Mumbai as a cinematographer and 1st AC, always on the lookout for stories worth telling—and the best light to tell them in.
