Alva Lundin
Alva Lundin (née Lindbohm; May 11, 1889 – February 1972) was a Swedish title card and credit designer and artist. Lundin began writing title cards when title cards first came to Sweden in 1919, several years after using title cards became common practice in the Hollywood film industry. Lundin has been regarded as a leader in the writing of title cards. Early life and education Born in Kvillinge, Östergötland in 1889, Lundin moved to Stockholm after the death of her father. From 1904 to 1906, Lundin attended the female section of Tekniska Skolan, later renamed the University College of Arts, Crafts, and Design, where she studied a variety of drawing and design techniques. This was during a time when attending art school as a woman in Sweden was an accepted but uncommon occurrence. Following her studies, Lundin worked as an illustrator and calligrapher at AB Hasse W. Tullberg. It is likely here that she would have met Sven Lundin, whom she married in 1915. After their marriage ...

Intertitle
In films, an intertitle, also known as a title card, is a piece of filmed, printed text edited into the midst of (i.e., ''inter-'') the photographed action at various points. Intertitles used to convey character dialogue are referred to as "dialogue intertitles", and those used to provide related descriptive/narrative material are referred to as "expository intertitles". In modern usage, the terms refer to similar text and logo material inserted at or near the start or end of films and television shows. Silent film era In this era intertitles were mostly called "subtitles" and often had Art Deco motifs. They were a mainstay of silent films once the films became of sufficient length and detail to necessitate dialogue or narration to make sense of the enacted or documented events. ''The British Film Catalogue'' credits the 1898 film ''Our New General Servant'' by Robert W. Paul as the first British film to use intertitles. Film scholar Kamilla Elliott identifies another early use of ...

People From Östergötland
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...
