Panic Button Pictures is the preoccupied world of award winning Animator Webster Crowell; Tactile, obsessive films about things which occasionally grow too big for their cages.

Here at Panic Button rising water has cut off the trade routes - there's black market seltzer and kerosene, gangs of unlicensed street vendors menace the alleys and what with the curfew in place it's not safe to leave the studio.   With wire, a bicycle and enough asbestos to furnish an avenue of 1940's row houses, we set to manufacturing our own industrial age.
