CineSkates: “Roller skates for Your DSLR”

Clever Kickstarter project CineSkates offers “a set of three wheels that quickly attach to a tripod and enable fluid, rolling video in an ultra-portable package.”

Uses:

• Arcing shots that rotate around objects
• Sliding shots that push or pull the subject into focus
• Rolling shots that glide over the subject
• Time-lapse shots that move the camera slowly and smoothly
• Panning shots that scan a wide area
• “Worm’s eye view” shots that slide just above the floor
