Mystery Men Test 1

For my film i am going to use a mixture of POV filming...and set pieces.One of my set pieces involves the camera panning across the sofa where 4 masked men will be sitting...looking pretty much identical. My task today was to try and get a smooth shot. The film above is done just holding the camera and walking infront of the sofa. This is too wobbly for what I want so I have made a device to help get a smooth shot. This is shown above...it is a remote control car with a tripod taped onto it....this enables the camera to move smoothly and at the same level across the floor. The only problem now is that the device moves in a diagonal motion along the sofa...so i need a wooden track now to hold the camera in a straight line.
