Panic Attack!

Directed by Eileen O'Meara

Do you ever wonder "did I leave the coffee on?" or "am I pregnant with a devil-baby?" This animated short explores anxiety, obsession, and one woman’s slippery hold on reality.

"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. -Eileen O'Meara
