Halasius is an award-winning screenwriter and filmmaker. He comes from a marginal low-income background in South America. Being the first of his family to obtain a higher education, Halasius is a "Summa Cum Laude" screenwriting graduate and a member of the prestigious "Phi Kappa Phi" society. He achieved the "President's Distinguished Honors Award" (presented to the most prestigious students in the United States.)
In addition to his degree in "Spanish Literature" obtained in Argentina, Halasius has obtained the following degrees in Los Angeles, California:
CSUN: BA in Screenwriting.
LAVC: AA in Film, TV, and Broadcasting, AA in Directing, AA in Screenwriting, AA in Postproduction, and an AS in Political Science.
In addition to being a prolific writer, Halasius is an actor with over two decades of experience, a poet/philosopher with published books, a musician/songwriter with seven published albums (multi-instrumentalist), and a video editor.
He has written screenplays for television and film in genres such as drama, historical, comedy, horror, family, sci-fi, fantasy, and thriller.
As a non-binary artist who came from an underrepresented sector, I'm adamant about my commitment to creating meaningful and educational audiovisual arts entertainment from an inclusive perspective.
My films/scripts highlight the importance of science, art, education, and history. Whenever I kick off a new project, I remember I am the result of a large chain of ancestors. We are the daughters and sons of history.
I define myself as:
Kingdom: Animal
Phylum: Chordata/Vertebrate
Class: Mammalia
Order: Primate
Family: Hominid
Genre: Homo
Species: Sapiens
Humanity: Artist
