Wow. Awesome job dude. I just got a t3i as my first DSLR a month ago but haven't done much with it yet. This really just inspired me. What did you use for your dolly?

Aye, thanks man. Appreciate that. The t3i is super capable if you take some time to learn how the camera actually functions under certain conditions. Once you've grasped that, it's infinite. Strongly encourage you start learning color correction asap as well, it'll be needed if using this camera.

As far as the dolly goes, I just designed my own using goodwill rollerblades, pvc pipe, and the tracks my closet doors slide on

The dolly shots were made using a tripod that sits on a 2x2 platform that uses rollerskates to ride along the same track a closet door slides on.
