Etymology

The word 'dollied' derives from the noun 'dolly', which has a history rooted in the 19th century. The term was first used to describe a type of wheeled cart used in theaters to facilitate the movement of scenery and props. The etymology of 'dolly' is thought to originate from the name of a child's toy, a doll, which later evolved to describe equipment used for practical purposes. In filmmaking, the use of a dolly is crucial for achieving smooth camera movements, allowing filmmakers to create dynamic scenes. As technology advanced, the term 'dolly' became synonymous with professional camera equipment used in the film industry, which later influenced the broader use of the term in various contexts, including logistics and general transport.
