It was developed by animator and filmmaker Ivo Caprino.[1] It was introduced as part of a NOK 90 million entertainment centre in Nordkapp in 1988.

In 1995 a "Super Videographer" was added to the amusement park Hunderfossen Familiepark, which also features other themes from Ivo Caprino's animation universe.[4] A "Super Videographer" cinema was also included in the polar centre Polaria in Tromsø,[5] Hardangervidda Natursenter in Eidfjord[6] the Norwegian Glacier Museum in Fjærland and other locations.[1] The cinema at Nordkapp was replaced with a new high-definition panorama cinema in 2009.[7]
