If you do anim.SetTrigger(..) in unity, you also need to setup that inside the Animator window for the corresponding gameobject.

So select your gameobject and go to window -> animator, add a trigger parameter (in your case with the name of "isdead") - and setup the transitions from the different states. So for example I create an empty state and set that as default, and then drag between that and my animation state in order to get the transitions.

Inside the transitions you just set default -> anim state to use the "isdead" parameter under the conditions. And on anim state -> default you set exit time as the condition.
