Videomaker’s Wheelchair Dolly 101
Another way to create better-looking videos using a wheelchair and a friend to create steady shots.
Just thought I’d add that if you use anything with inflatable wheels, deflate them to half (you have to experiment). That way you’ll be able to ride over small bumpy surfaces smoother.
You also problably can do that with a pickup truck, but it will be extremely hard to stablize the video, but if you can, then it would be a cool pan. Since the back of pickups tend to bounce up and down, you will have a grinding effect. I tried it with an atv and the stability was terrible. We actually attached a tripod on the front of the atv. It was fun to film though.
