Born in 1981 in Paris, Manon Heugel is a writer and director. She lives and works between Paris and Berlin. After making her theater debut as an actress and director, she quickly turned to cinema and received her degree as a screenwriter at La Fémis in 2013. Following her short film "La fille du gardien de prison" (2015), selected by several international festivals, she is currently working on the creation of a fiction series for television adapted from her blog, Génération Berlin.
"Forté" (Dargaud, 2019; Europe Comics 2020) is her first graphic novel.
Kim Consigny was born in 1991 in southern France. Since "artist" is a profession rarely advised by guidance counselors, she chose a more reassuring path, studying architecture in Marseille and then in Paris, where she obtained her diploma as an architect in 2015. In parallel, she continued to draw, first for herself and then more and more for others.
During her studies, she participated in a collective at Manolosanctis, then illustrated two episodes of the web series "Other People." Her first comic, "Pari(s) d'amies, " with Rokhaya Diallo writing the script, was released by Delcourt in April 2015. Subsequently, she gave up architecture in favor of drawing. In addition to being a children's book illustrator, she worked for two years with "Je Bouquine" for whom she published six pages of comic books every month.
In 2019 she came together with Manon Heugel to publish "Forté" (Dargaud; Europe Comics 2020), a feel-good story in the world of classical music.
