Whats a Spike Lee Dolly Shot

A Spike Lee Dolly shot consist of having the camera operator and the actor on a dolly so the only action moving is the action happening is off the dolly. This is called the 'Double Dolly Shot'. This is effective as both camera and actor moves simultaneously which looks cool for the audience. It also makes the actors look as if they are floating or hovering above the floor.
