Sanjay Singh
Filmmaker and founder of nukhu (noo-koo).
Neil Sanjay Singh (professionally Sanjay Singh) is a Guyanese-American filmmaker, entrepreneur, and social-impact advocate from Long Island, now based in Chinatown, New York City. After earning a BFA in Film & Television from NYU Tisch in 2012, he built a career producing and directing commercial and original work across short-form spots, music videos, documentaries, narrative shorts, and unscripted series.
In 2016, he launched Nukhu (nukhu.com), a community-driven platform for bold independent cinema where filmmakers set their own prices and keep a meaningful share of revenue. Nukhu has produced and curated original projects including OTIS (an official selection of the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival) and Living Room Comics, an unscripted comedy series where rising comedians develop one joke from idea to living-room performance.
Sanjay’s commercial producing experience spans healthcare, finance, quick-service restaurants, fashion, tech, nonprofits, and small businesses. Selected collaborators include Alibaba, Bank of America, Comedy Central, Hasbro, Mastercard, Northwell Health, Refinery29, Subway, Truist, Viacom, Vitamix, and more.
He loves to blend genres and build fantastical, whimsical worlds. Through the Nukhu Foundation, Sanjay provides practical filmmaking training (demos, exercises, and hands-on workshops) to help emerging creators understand the tools of modern filmmaking and build sustainable careers.
