Whether it’s fight off my front foot, fight off my back foot, pick shots off, roll shots off, potshot, put combinations together, I feel like I’m a pretty well-rounded fighter. Whatever the situation calls for, I feel like I have the tools on my belt to bring it out.
When you hear my lyrics, you hear the shots that I throw at people. I throw shots because I always been the underdog. I got rejected so many times, and I say it in my lyrics constantly.
I’m going to miss shots. I’m going to make plenty of mistakes. It’s not going to be perfect.
Some games you’re gonna have seven shots, some games you’re gonna have 15, it just ebbs and flows with the game.
Sometimes the shots you play in T20s don’t look good and you feel that you got out on a bad looking shot.
I’ve got power. I don’t throw hard every time. I just throw shots.
You cannot score 10 goals from 10 shots – that’s impossible – but I am trying.
Well, I’ve learned something from Michael Robison just about maximizing your shots. For example, if I’m shooting a scene and someone’s driving at the wheel, you could steal an insert in the same shot.
When you’re setting up your dating profile, choose the photos according to who you are today. A variety of recent shots that are a true representation of your character.
When you’re young and you first come onto the scene, you’re fearless. You just go for your shots and don’t really think about the consequences. But as you play on through years and years, you get punished for those misses, and gradually, that leaves scars. It dents your confidence a bit.
Golf is fundamentally about being honest. I see people hit eight shots and tell me they shot five. I never say a word. It is a reminder to me of what is at stake.
The James Brown we saw tended to be the James Brown we chose to see: as the caped crusader of funk and soul, adored by millions, or as the face in a seemingly endless series of mug shots. The ways in which he appealed to and appalled different audiences made Brown a kind of national Rorschach test.
In ‘Bunny,’ I have got my dialogues – almost 80 per cent of my shots were okayed in a single take. I did put in effort and did a lot of homework.
I believe more in precision, when you have the capability, like when you see a mosquito fly and you’re able to hit it, you’re able to hit it with a couple of short sharp shots… it’s a beautiful thing.
I’d be lying if I said I never think about my female fans in certain shots and certain scenes. Like, when I’m topless, I might think: ‘This one is for the ladies.’
Tough teams win when the shots are not going.
Obviously, there is not one player in the world that doesn’t like making shots.
What team’s supposed to win – that doesn’t mean anything. You’ve still got to go out and play. You’ve still got to go out and hit the shots and make the putts.
Kerber is an incredible fighter. She redirects her shots. She can hit any shot at any time in any specific place whenever she wants.
On ‘Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,’ I spent two or three months learning how to ride a motorcycle. I wasn’t really riding the motorcycle in 98 percent of the movie, but the shots of me getting on and off had to look like I had been doing it for years and years.
Obviously fitness matters and at a certain age batsmen get the knack, batsmen get an idea how to get runs and I think he got the idea about 2-3 years ago how to get runs, what sort of shots to play and reading the situation.
I usually work in music videos, where we shoot, like, 10 to 12 setups and 60 shots or something.
The night before games, I try to get some shots up. Early on the game day, I come early in the morning to try to get some shots up. I just try to do the same things: go through the scouting, watch some clips before the game, just try to get my body ready.
There were shots of Kong pulling at my clothes, but only in horizontal and never from above. Never from above.
When I started, you didn’t focus so much on production, certainly not – gosh – down to the finest little detail of how you shifted your eyes or how you turned to somebody. A lot of the shots were far away from a still camera. There weren’t as many close-ups and intimacy.
For so many years, I was watching my tee shots slide hard to the right. I used to think I was hitting a draw at times, and the ball was still curving to the right! I still prefer to play a little fade, but I’ve had to recalibrate my visuals.
With ‘Call Me by Your Name,’ they locked off the camera and let scenes play out in long, wide shots to make them feel almost voyeuristic.
Basketball is a team game. But that doesn’t mean all five players should have the same amount of shots.
I’ve storyboarded for things other people have shot. So thinking in shots and orchestrating shots is not foreign to me at all.
Just working on stuff off the dribble a lot more. It’s helping me create my own shot and freeing me up a little bit, being able to make plays and make shots.
What’s the hardest thing about making a show like ‘Vinyl’ or ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ is they are expecting movie-level cinematic quality in every way – from the performances to the visuals and the shots – especially on a show where you are doing Scorsese style.
