  • Inventor of the now-universally used "video-assist"; a video camera linked to the motion picture camera's lens. This technology allows a director to view takes immediately after calling "cut!" Lewis developed this system as an actor/director in order to review takes that he was unable to view while shooting, since he was an actor in the scene.
