What describes sky dollies used by 3B East and West?

• A. Fixed ceiling cameras
• B. Robotic cameras on a 360-degree ceiling track
• C. Drones hovering above the set
• D. Handheld cameras on tripods

Answer: (B)

Sky dollies are overhead camera systems that ride on a track mounted in the ceiling, allowing the camera to move smoothly above the set. When described as robotic and on a 360-degree ceiling track, this means the camera can be programmed to pan and circle around the space from above, giving dynamic, repeatable overhead shots. This setup is characteristic of the equipment used by studios like 3B East and West for cinematic or broadcast scenes.

This description fits best because the term “sky” signals an overhead position, while “dolly” implies movement along a track. A fixed ceiling camera wouldn’t move, drones fly and aren’t confined to a ceiling track indoors, and handheld cameras on tripods operate on the ground rather than overhead.
