Video Dollies & Sliders

Keep Your Shots in Motion

The true marks of a professional video production are variety in shots and camera stability. When you need more than just a static shot in your narrative or documentary video, you should equip your production with dollies or camera sliders. These filmmaking devices can help you imitate the masters of cinematography and give your story new depth. When you rent video dollies & camera sliders you can get an instant upgrade in your piece's production value. BorrowLenses has a variety of devices that are at different price points, no matter what your budget is.

Add Drama and Excitement

As you plan your film shoot, it's important to have a variety of shots to help push the narrative. Camera motion can help you get what you want from the scene. While handheld camera work can add something to your piece, great shots must also use dollies in order to elevate the story. Get the perfect tracking shot by hooking up your camera and tripod to the Omni-Tracker Slim Dolly. If your budget can't fit the added expense of a dolly, a camera slider is a less costly way to achieve the same look.

Enhance Your Scene

Once you've equipped yourself with a dolly or camera slider, you can start playing around with your creativity. One challenging shot to try is called the vertigo shot, or dolly zoom, which has you dolly in toward your subject while simultaneously zooming out. This effect changes the depth perception for the viewer and creates a startling look on screen. Many big budget Hollywood films continue to use this type of shot during moments of terror, realization or significance in the story.

Elevate your filmmaking power by renting a video dolly or camera slider for your next film project. BorrowLenses gives you affordable options, so you can make your film even more visually stunning.
