What We Do Here.....
The art of Dolly Gripping is like no other job in the world. It falls to us to work out the mechanics of a particular shot, as well as offer a smooth, aesthetically pleasing move which makes the shot work and delivers emotion to the scene. It's the ultimate blend of engineering and art. This website is a place for professionals in motion picture camera platform movement to meet and swap tips, stories, and gripe a little about the difficulties we often face, but rarely get to talk about among ourselves. It's also a place for aspiring Dolly Grips to learn a little something from the old pros. So, welcome. Look around and join our little community. The site is run by myself, D, and Azurgrip, two guys who have each spent the last 20 years moving cameras around film sets. But it also benefits from the readership and participation of hundreds of Dolly and Key Grips from around the world, men and women who have helped deliver some of the most memorable and beautiful moving shots on film. So if you have any questions, please ask. You can ask questions or make comments on our message forum, which is below, just above the photos, or email us at dollygrippery at gmail dot com. We, or one of the experienced grips who frequent this site will answer.
If you're looking for something in particular, please check out the "Links" section. Everything from equipment in India, to glamour shots of grips can be found there.
What you won't find here: How to make a dolly out of plywood, info on the Wa11y Dolly, anything about how to move a boat.

D- I am so happy you are keeping Tom's hard work going. I miss Tom very much. I think Supersilders are the BEST out there and I could not be happier for you.

thanks Chris, It's a little slow getting going but the response has been very positive. we want to be very careful to build them to Tom's exacting standards.
They look great, from the photos.
I may actually be doing a feature where we'd like a couple sliders on for the whole show. Alas, I am in NYC. Does anyone know a good, reputable place/person?

sales pitch warning!!
I could do the european market for The SuperSlider if you could do the US market for my TwinDolly/TrussDolly
HAHA!
Great product BTW, and a good thing that you have kept Tom's work up and running!
Good Luck!

DW- Check out Silent cat, They have a slider with many nice features and they are based out of NY.
