“I’ve worked with, and for, Ilana on more than one occasion now, and I’ve found her to be one of those rare talents in this business: she’s a gifted editor who also knows how to write, produce and direct.  As a result, she brings a real-world perspective into the edit bay.  In addition to having a fantastic visual aesthetic, she also has a deep understanding of story structure.  The combination of those two elements elevates her work far above the norm.”

-Tim Walton, Media Production Specialist at KVIE Public Television

“I have worked with Ilana for the past three seasons of Broadway at Music Circus. Ilana is an exceptionally skilled and fast editor. Music Circus productions feature top national Broadway talent in shows that typically run 1 week. I shoot the footage during the final dress rehearsal and opening night and turn it over to Ilana. She is able to post a very high quality promo video usually by the next day. These sizzle reels are very enjoyable to watch and have greatly helped Music Circus. Ilana has a gift for remembering important bits and weaving them all together in no time, and with excellent composition. Ilana’s enthusiasm is infectious. She has a lot of creativity, attention to detail, and quickly picks up technical knowledge. I have worked with her on several other video projects, including local affiliate TV spots, and my own short film.”

“Ilana is a superb, lighting fast editor. She has the remarkable ability of being able to find a story from any footage thrown at her. She has a vast knowledge of editing tools that she deploys when needed to bring each video to that next level. You can tell that editing is her passion, and she brings a level of professionalism and commitment to her job that is truly impressive.”

“Ilana Hack’s work for Broadway Sacramento (Formerly California Musical Theatre) has been both inspirational and transformative. Through her artistry, she has shaped rehearsal footage of our productions into polished, exciting sizzle reels that have commanded both local and national attention. Her attention to detail and passion for perfection are evidenced in every project, and her enthusiasm for the work has made each collaboration a pleasure. I could not be more grateful for her contribution to our organization.”

– Scott Klier, Producing Artistic Director at Broadway Sacramento

“Ilana has a special knack for choosing clips that best represent the tone of each show, and editing them together, along with the perfect music segments, in a way that makes the show enormously appealing. And she creates these videos at lightning speed, often literally overnight[…]In short, Ilana is an amazingly talented video editor with a creative sense that continually amazes me. The professional quality videos she creates help immensely in driving ticket sales for our Broadway At Music Circus productions. They also represent our organization in an extremely positive light to the industry at large, frequently drawing praise from theater professionals around the country. In addition to all that, Ilana is a joy to work with from start to finish.”
