How to Build a Shitty Dolly

Excellent. Subscribed. Delightfully irreverent. You’re a whole lot younger than me, but far more experienced in filmmaking. I wish you well.

Why the fuck am i only finding this channel now ? i feel like i missed out.

Love your freaking humor, dude!

This is great man thank you👊

@ponysmasher Question: Is there a way to fasten the tripod on the dolly so it won’t slide on the plywood?

“Now is the time to find out that 4x2 is not 6” made me have an audible “what?”

You seem to be a cool dude and everything, but I tried this tutorial and your directions are pretty terrible, honestly. I couldn't figure out what size screws to get for the wheels and size PVC pipe. None of those are mentioned in your video. I also didn't see anything in the description that lists everything you used.

So i build this thing but:

8 Wheels 50€
Ball bearings: 44€

Wood: 9€
Screws: 35€
Srewnuts: 8€

Nooks: 3,20€

6 pipes + 1 for the connection 45€
Saw: 6€
Tape: 8€

Colorcan: 7€
---------------
215,20€

O/

It's like Ron Swanson had a stroke but still refuses to admit it.

How do you center the wheels/brackets so the pipes don’t stop the dolly.

Hi David. Thanks for sharing this idea with us. I built a shitty dolly TM today. Works pretty good. One issue though - when I go over the part where 2 pipes are joined together, the dolly jitters. Any idea how to solve that? Thanks :)

lol I need those posters rn

wonder what size of pvc pipe he used?

Expected a tutorial on building your own Annabelle smdh

Hi. Reality said you do not have fuck all. xxx.

But David, how can I make my movie with my Arri Alexa if I don't have a Shitty Dolly TM to mount it on?

DAVID, DAVID, DAVID!
I ran across this video through a link on someone else's channel. within the first few minutes I had to subscribed . I love your personality! I want to use that poster as a wallpaper on my phone's lock screen. I will definitely continue to follow your videos. thabk you so much for the tutorial, aaaaaand for the inspiration.

After watching this I printed out your poster and put it on the wall at my desk…the one about movies not pooping 😂 maybe I should put the pooping one up too 🤔 🤷🏼‍♂️

Make movies, not excuses. İ wrtited this.

As an even cheaper option, I've experimented with sliding. Gently place your camera on the floor and with great force push it, the shear sliding should produce a good moving shot, although id probably take of the lens, as it may scrape it. Goodluck.
Also any suggestions for a new camera

i want to grow up to be a film and shitty dollys maker like you

Haha I love this guy!

Sir can i use line skate wheels

HAHAHA THIS IS A TROLL. GOOD VIDEO MAN !

Amazing. And he included a link to the posters, lol.

This dudes funny!!!

Man I dont even have a tripod i was just gonna use duct tape and a selfish stick with my shitty android phone on a skateboard and see what happens.

Pro Tip: You don't need to waste your money on any kind of dolly. Just move the camera with your hands!

AWESOME VIDEO!! lol

love that !!

this self sarcasm of yours made me subscribed....couldn't fight it,well don mister

Thanks for tutorial! Loved it!

I wish all how-to’s were explained like this

WAHAHAHAHAHAHA... priceless

I can't stand it, it is hilarious! :D
I laughed all the way to the end because of your building jokes at the beginning! 😂

I want to put that second poster behind my bathroom door and see how long it takes for my girlfriend to kill me.

I miss my wife

The friend part is absolutely me too lol

A Hollywood director making video tutorials with humour😂 what a guy

I love your videos man! Thank you. I love the host-blunt approach! plus, I love the posters in the video. I am going to print and post in my office/Bathroom.

I really think you need to consider making a comedy.

I actually watched this while pooping so that poster was scarily meta, things got personal very quickly, bravo

your too awesome! don't ever change! just goes to show you can be a big hollywood director and still be yourself no matter what.

just subbed today. thanks for this and for you being you

I have to protest this description...I built one of these, and it's not shitty at all; it's almost verging on adequate. Definitely was a help on a project I'm currently shooting. It wasn't even noisy, which I was worried would be an issue. Thanks for the idea, and best of luck with your future projects.

I love it!

Lol...awesome vid man....great tip too...thanx.
