This was not a set task: when we were filming our AS piece, we thought that a dolly would help us achieve some more professional, interesting shots. However, our school lacks equipment such as this, so this year we decided to make our own.
Using scrap pieces of wood, wood screws, glue, caster wheels, a drill, a hammer, a protractor and a tripod, we were able to create this dolly. The tripod was used as a template to create the dolly's framework. The tripod was an equilateral triangle so we knew each corner would be sixty degrees. The wheels we used were taken from a mobile computer desk.
We feel that although our dolly is not industry standard, it was practical for our time scale and resources. With this, we hope to film some interesting tracking shots.
