Hank Isaac is at the top of his game. I've seen him in action, not only as a talented Director of dramatic films, but also as a screenwriter. Bit it doesn't stop there. His knowledge of all aspects pertaining to the Arts and beyond speaks for itself. When Hank is on board with any project, whether large or small, you will have a winning project, and one to be very proud of in the end.

Question and answer
Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A. Get to know the person you want to work with. Creative endeavors are very personal. I never start a project until and unless (1) I buy into its premise and (2) I really, really understand what my client wants - and not just in the broad strokes.
Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?
A. Quite often, a project that may seem simple and easy is often the most difficult one. And a project that seems difficult is a breeze. No matter how hard we try, it's difficult to pre-establish levels of complexity.
Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?
A. • How long will this take?
• How much will this cost?
• What are my options/alternatives?
• Have you done this before? - and this should not be a deal-breaker. Look for "crossover" skills and talents.
Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?
A. It's very hard to do good work and meet a client's expectations if the client himself is not clear about what those expectations are. It's also rough going when a client hasn't a clue about what I do or how I do it. It rests to a large extent upon my shoulders to help educate the client in those regards. And it helps to have a client who is willing to learn. A clear understanding of the goal creates a win-win situation for both of us.
Q. If you have a complicated pricing system for your service, please give all the details here.
A. I don't like working or pricing by the clock. I generally don't quote a price until and unless I thoroughly understand the project and my involvement in it. Then it rests with me to come up with a fair price that works for both of us. If a project turns out easier, I always let my clients know and am willing to renegotiate. If a client misstates the parameters of a project or decides to expand them, I also expect to renegotiate.
