Jonathan Haloossim

A Los Angeles native, Jon first picked up his parent's Sony camcorder when he was only 12 years old; an innocent act that would set the stage for all of his future creative endeavors. He would record everything and stockpile a mountain of footage. This footage would be become his first edits and movies. He graduated from UCSB in 2010 with a BA in Film and Media Studies, but fascinated by the human mind he sought after a second degree in Psychology. By studying the two subjects he was able to go deeper into human psyche; his goal was to develop characters with more depth by going into their actual minds, creating layers of emotions and imagination.

He has since worked his way through the industry, eventually opening his own studio in DTLA called Astroetic Studios. It is here that he has the freedom explore his own film and photography projects. He seeks to transform peoples perception by embracing unconventional methods.
