Bonjour Charlie,
Use "il est" if: it's an adjective describing a person; an unmodified adverb or noun, or a prepositional phrase.
Use "c'est" if: it's an adjective describing a situation; or a modified adverb or noun, or a proper name or stressed pronoun.
Google search: il est vs c'est, and you'll find this explained with examples.
Good Luck!
Cheryl
