There’s no question about it: Brazil’s right on the money when it comes to graphic design and graffiti. With motion graphics, though, the due is still locked up in a dark drawer in accounts payable somewhere. Outside of the few well-recognized studios (see: Lobo) there are groups and individuals diligently plugging away, filling the blanks in between with fresh and fly work. Say hi to Matilda; behind the memorable moniker is Sao Paulo duo Raquel Falkenbach and Renato Ferro, who forged a professional partnership this year to put into action a veritable plethora of very good pieces for MTV Brasil and magazines that are nothing short of awe-inspiring. The illustration work is sweet, but their mograph segments are even more incredible. I’m not exaggerating when I say that watching the sleek opening they did for an MTV Brasil special called “Discoteca” under the videos section has made my life better. Someone give these guys a music video to produce already — there is serious potential here.
