We follow Fábio and Gabriel through the process of creating their drawings

Camilla Costa visits Fábio and Gabriel to see them at work and follows them through the process of creating their drawings.

Gabriel Bá and Fábio Moon are not only twins, but they work in an identical artistic field - the world of comic books. The brothers, who are based in Brazil, have gained a worldwide reputation for their ability to convey whole worlds in a series of cartoon panels, which fuse drawings and script to create a powerful storyline.

The brothers often work together, with successes like “How to Talk to Girls at Parties” and “DayTripper” to their names.  More recently they have been completing separate projects, with Gabriel working on “The Umbrella Academy ”  and Fábio  on “Casanova.”

But even when they work separately, they share the same studio space, sitting together for hours at a time and patiently sketching.

Camilla Costa visits Fábio and Gabriel to see them at work and follows them through the process of creating their drawings. We hear all stages of the process, from the first drawing to the final inking and explore the surprising potency of comic book images.
