- DirectorSverre HalvorsenHalvorsen was a draftsman and cartoonist. He is going to be the very first cartoon creator in Norway.

Sverre Halvorsen was inspired by the German cartoonist Robert Leonard, and already from 1913 Halvorsen made cartoons for director Randall at Cirkus Tivoli in Kristiania. Today, only Roald Amundsen exists at the South Pole from this period. The drawings were made using chalk and blackboard and the technique is called 'lightning sketch'. Later - in, among other things, Det nye Aar? (1921), Halvorsen used the pixillation technique, a technique where real objects and figures are animated. Sverre Halvorsen is today best known as one of Norway's leading cartoonists and witticisms, and helped start the Tegnerforbundet in 1916.
