In 2018 his original TV drama pilot “Afters” was longlisted for the BBC Drama Writers Room. The first two films, of Isaac’s mind-bending Shut Eye short film trilogy have gained cult followings at international festivals and been selected as shorts of the month on multiple platforms.

He has been selected to join BFI Network x Bafta crew 2021, and The School of High Tide 2021.
Isaac says – “I am thrilled to be joining Stockroom at this stage in my journey as a writer. They have a reputation for producing thoughtful, ballsy, bold and artistic work, which often captures the zeitgeist and sparks debate. At a time where theatre’s absence is being so keenly felt, it feels like a golden opportunity and blessing to be part of something that will hopefully have a positive impact on British theatre’s future, not to mention disrupt the status quo a tad. I can’t wait to meet the writers and cause a stir.”
