Gift Keli (born, January 18, 1991) is a producer, writer and director from Kenya. His love for motion pictures started at a young age when he used to be taken by his father into the audiovisual facility at Solusi University, Zimbabwe. Here he played with the film cameras that were available and watched as the staff worked. He attended high school at Maxwell Adventist Academy in Nairobi, Kenya, where his passion for motion pictures grew and was able to develop his editing and camera skills while working on Zamani, a video yearbook highlighting the high school yearly stories.
Keli attended Helderberg College of Higher Learning in Somerset West, South Africa, where he majored in Media Studies and graduated with a B.A. in Communications in 2012. While in South Africa, he worked at SID Media Studios as part of the production crew, producing over 20 Shows for Hope Channel International. The Hollywood type environment in South Africa pushed him to begin writing his stories and taking a chance with friends in the film industry by sharing short films produced guerrilla-style.
In 2013, Keli returned to Kenya and continued writing short stories. His first professional production job was for Buni Media, where he worked as a production designer for the XYZ Show (2017). He then spent four years working for Dil Pictures as a Video Editor and Graphics Designer on shows such as Pendo (2015), Pray & Prey (2016), Mafundi (2018) and Tujaribu (2017).
Keli launched his own company in 2014, Kelflection Limited, a media and entertainment company based in Nairobi, Kenya. He is now taking everything he has learnt and has begun producing original productions through his company.
Keli is working on several productions which are in the pre-production phase for 2022, Television Series - The Kiss from Kisii and from Kayole With Love. He is also working on his first Film - The Burning Up North (2024)
