synopsis
You know the nagging thoughts that start with "did I leave the coffee on?" and turn in to "am I pregnant with a devil-baby?" This hand-drawn animation explores anxiety, obsession, and one woman's slippery hold on reality.

Filmography
filmmaker's note
“Panic Attack!” is a hand-drawn animation from the point of view of a woman having a panic attack. I wanted the transitions between reality and her imagined fears to be seamless, so there are no edits -- it is one continually transforming drawing.
