When filming we used a piece of equipment called a dolly camera. This is a type of tripod but with wheels.
A camera dolly is a specialised piece of filmmaking and television production equipment designed to create smooth camera movements (cinematic techniques). The camera is mounted to the dolly and the camera operator and focus puller or camera assistant usually ride on the dolly to operate the camera. The dolly grip is the dedicated technician trained to operate the dolly.
This was helpful to us because it helped make smooth moving shots when Tim was explaining his top 5 kills to the camera as a monologue. This helped create a realism to the film but also interaction to the audience and a comical side also just like in Ferris Bueller.
