Video Assist




The video assist is widely used in modern Film Productions . However, some directors prefer to trust their Camera Operator or DP and allow them to freely shoot without the pressure of being monitored, while other directors want to ensure that everything is exactly as intended.

Comedian and director Jerry Lewis holds the United States Patent on this system, and is widely credited with its invention, although some similar systems existed before Lewis first used a Video Camera to simultaneously film scenes with the cinematic cameras during production of ''The Bellboy'' in 1960 .
