We have collected the best Shooting Quotes by famous authors including Cate Blanchett, David Schwimmer, Garry Marshall, Abhinav Bindra, Charlie Sykes and many others, we hope that among them you will find the right thought.

I think the height of ridiculousness was when I was playing Elizabeth in ‘The Golden Age’ while preparing to start shooting ‘I’m Not There.’ I literally finished filming Elizabethan grandeur on Friday, flew to Montreal, and started being Bob Dylan on Monday.
Cate Blanchett
London is completely unpredictable when it comes to weather. You’ll start a scene, and it’s a beautiful morning. You get there at 6 in the morning, set up, you start the scene, start shooting. Three hours later, it is pitch black and rainy.
David Schwimmer
Editing is the only process. The shooting is the pleasant work. The editing makes the movie, so I spend all my life in editing.
Garry Marshall
I have a goal in front of me and that is to achieve a gold medal at the Olympics in air rifle shooting.
Abhinav Bindra
During dull moments at school, I admit, I not only drew soldiers shooting one another but also tanks, bombers, fighters, and even the occasional space ship with planet-destroying powers.
Charlie Sykes
Shooting a horror story with kids, I always explain really simply. They may be scary to watch, but they’re a lot of fun to shoot. You know, the kids have a great time shooting these movies. Whether you let them watch it is another matter.
Guillermo del Toro
I think my biggest break though came probably on Patriot Games because it was the biggest, longest second unit up to that point. It was like five months of shooting and a huge crew.
David R. Ellis
I don’t attack any kind of script or shooting with some philosophy that is discernible even to myself. It might just be art and love: When I got my Academy Award for ‘Virginia Woolf’ in the middle of the Vietnam War, I said, ‘I hope we can use our art for peace and love.’
Haskell Wexler
When I’m not shooting, I’m a leggings and boots girl. I like cute and casual – for me, it’s all about feeling good and being comfortable.
Chrissy Metz
I grew up going to school and high school and then shooting a movie for a few months. It’s an odd way to grow up and is kind of forced maturity.
Logan Lerman
There’s some things that you learn as you’re shooting, and as you’re editing that are key, because when you start you don’t have the brain that can finish it. You don’t really know what it is, and that’s the key job; figuring out what you actually have, not what you’re dreaming of having.
Mike Mills
African history is filled with experiences of people shooting their way to power and then splintering into factions, like in Somalia and Liberia.
George Ayittey
For people who grew up hunting, especially war veterans, shooting often settled the mind. It was something that required full concentration, and therefore took you away from your troubles, at least for a short time.
Taya Kyle
When Carpenter was shooting ‘Vampires’ in New Mexico when I was living there, I desperately tried to get a job working on that film, and I couldn’t. So my first job as a PA was on a CBS movie of the week that was shooting next door, and whenever I could, I would sneak over so I could watch.
Drew Goddard
I was never interested in becoming an actor. I was directing videos. I was never into acting. I was into shooting music videos. I’ve only ever been behind the camera. Never in front of it.
Barkhad Abdi
When I’m filming, I try to get a facial two weeks before I start shooting and then again once I’ve wrapped. On set they tend to use a lot of make-up, so I like to prepare my skin right before, and then unclog all my pores right after.
Chelan Simmons
Nothing is cut while I’m shooting. I edit between nine months and a year, and usually have around 80 hours of footage I have to get down to an 82-minute movie.
Christopher Guest
Fourth of July. My birthday is July first, and my best friend’s birthday is July fifth, so it’s always been a favorite holiday. It’s all about having a cooler full of sodas, hot dogs, and just hanging out and shooting off firecrackers, being low-key, watching the fireworks.
Hilarie Burton
A studio allows me more freedom. You can create your own sort of reality which is actually more exciting than shooting on location. You can conjure up a complete atmosphere of escapism for the public.
Ken Adam
Working on ‘Laguna’ was great because just being in production and shooting stuff and having to go back and relive some things, and there were some lines here and there that the producers would want us to say, and just kind of, you’re forced to recreate moments, and just working on the show was so much fun.
Stephen Colletti
Finishing is different to shooting. If you work at in in training sessions then you will just do it naturally during the game.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Whenever there is news of a terrible shooting, I wonder why America has so miserably failed to enact even common-sense gun legislation.
Jon Meacham
It’s interesting, the things you learn when you’re 21. I learned never to get tattoos in the middle of shooting a movie. Because if you’re not Angelina Jolie or Megan Fox, they will fire you.
Katee Sackhoff
I’ve always been able to get into the box, but in the past, I’d been very rash in my finishing; I wasn’t clear with what I was doing in the final third. When it came to shooting, I was very rushed. I wasn’t hitting the ball cleanly.
Aaron Ramsey
When you’re shooting a TV show, there’s not a lot of time to build character.
Candice Patton
People ask me what the appeal of ‘True Blood’ is and I think there are so many answers to that question, but I think that when there is so much excitement for what you do there is no way that that doesn’t become palpable and comes shooting out like bullets.
Michelle Forbes
It would be fun to be eighty-five and have a Broadway debut. That’s the goal I’m shooting for. When they revive ‘Driving Miss Daisy’ for the seven-hundredth time.
Miriam Shor
One of the things I love about shooting the most is that there’s no specific body type or body build that someone has to have.
Matt Emmons
I could make good time because I was so long and skinny, shooting through the water like a stick.
Johnny Weissmuller
In most Westerns, you know, people are shooting off guns all the time until you don’t even notice it anymore.
George Stevens
Sometimes a director is making three films. Perhaps he is shooting a film in Madras and a film in Bombay and he can’t leave Madras as some shooting has to be done, so he directs by telephone. The shooting takes place. On schedule.
Satyajit Ray
Whenever I come here to Ilocos, I get sentimental because I always remember that as a child, I would ride a bike with my father in Paoay near where they were shooting ‘Panday.’
Grace Poe
I find it really hard to even read another script while shooting.
Chris Pine
The film of tomorrow will not be directed by civil servants of the camera, but by artists for whom shooting a film constitutes a wonderful and thrilling adventure.
Francois Truff
aut
Instead of going out and shooting people, why don’t you go start a band.
Joel Madden
I hadn’t worked for a year when I had my Prison Break audition and it was the easiest audition I’ve ever had. I got the script on Friday, went to the audition on Monday and got the part on Tuesday. I was shooting the pilot a week later. I didn’t have time to be nervous – it happened so quickly.
Wentworth Miller
‘Little Night’ has layers of meaning. There’s something enchanted about night. All those heavenly bodies, shooting stars, the crescent moon, celestial phenomenon. Owls fly at night, and first kisses happen. Night is romantic. Alternately, darkness hides the worst of human behavior.
Luanne Rice
I like to rehearse and rehearse and have everything exactly calculated before we start shooting – probably to a fault.
John Lithgow
I’m the kind of person who, if I see a shooting star, I wouldn’t stay there and watch it. I’d run to my friends and tell them because I would want everyone to see it too.
Paris Hilton
Being a conservative in Hollywood is like walking into a shooting range with a bull’s-eye attached to your body. There are more of us than you would believe, but if you want to keep working, you feel like you have to keep quiet.
Pat Sajak
Fellini and Bunuel changed my life for me, they are my favourites. If it is true that movies are dreams, both of them, Fellini and Bunuel were shooting in a dream way.
Roberto Benigni
As kids, we have all handled shot guns. From there on, there is no transition. It stays in the toy box. The idea is to get the transition and bridge the gap between the toy box and the shooting range.
Gagan Narang
Every time there is a major shift in technology, it’s been hugely exciting and scary at the same time. I have seen some really drastic changes in technology, like shooting only film to video to digital.
Taylor Steele
I started my modelling career by sending my pictures to American Apparel and eventually meeting my friend Petra Collins, who started shooting me for magazines around New York. I ended up signing a modelling contract with Wilhelmina Models a couple of years later.
Barbie Ferreira
Recently I’ve been participating in radio and television talk programs doing broadcasts and conferences, and shooting my mouth off and really going to town.
Peter Maxwell Davies
Movies are made in the scriptwriting process and prepping and preparations for the shooting process.
Wes Ball
For a two-hour movie on a 20-day shooting schedule, it’s O.K. to have an actor who’s a pain in the neck.
David L. Wolper
The only guy that was ever affected by climactic conditions in his acting was Kirk Douglas. He did a superb job in ‘Lonely Are the Brave’ because we were shooting that picture up at about 12,000 feet, and the rarefied atmosphere sapped him of any energy or strength that he had. That was his best performance.
Walter Matthau
I’m quite a loser. I’ve done nothing in my life for the past 12 years. I’d just eat, sleep, run and do nothing except shooting.
Abhinav Bindra
I sadly never got to my prom. I was shooting ‘The Outsiders.’
Rob Lowe
Oh, yeah – I could see myself as a catch and shooter, come off curls and shooting. I really feel good about shooting the ball.
Tony Snell
‘The Squid and the Whale’ I shot in 23 days. I would have loved more time for it at the time, but in some ways that kind of kamikaze way of shooting was right for that movie.
Noah Baumbach
You realize that as much as you want to socialize with the people on the set, or you want to, after a day shooting, joke around or whatever. Somehow, with playing Jesus, this doesn’t happen. You actually need to decompress and be on your own and prepare on your own. It never happened to me before.
Juan Pablo Di Pace
The last day of shooting, there were tears. It was this family that’s grown together over the years. Many of us have worked on it since the beginning, so there’s a sadness when we all go our separate ways.
David Heyman
Certainly for my father, there were great times, good times, not-so-good times. He might be shooting a Fellini film for six months, then not working for two months. I’m used to that dynamic.
Toby Jones
No, I think I used to be pretty superstitious about certain things, but I’m really not anymore. As long as I have everything is in order and I have my things as far as the match goes, shooting I’m fine. But I really don’t.
Nancy Johnson
On Lock, Stock, we didn’t know where the money for shooting the next day was coming from.
Guy Ritchie
I’m definitely drawn to stories of just regular folks, just generally in some kind of horrific situation. I keep saying I want to do a love story in the south of France with a boy and girl and some wine. Then I always end up in an oil rig with four hundred guys or on a mountain with guys shooting at each other.
Peter Berg
One of the main reasons I am so drawn to Hitchcock is that he planned his shots way in advance on story-boards, which he designed like classic paintings (he was an art connoisseur). It’s why he found shooting on set boring – because he had already composed the film in his head.
Camille Paglia
At its best, a live show is completely transcendent. The image I get is breaking through glass or shooting out into the free zone.
Alex Ebert
Growing up in Arizona, I love fireworks, shooting off bottle rockets and M80s.
Dierks Bentley
For me, shooting, editing, and scoring rely on rhythm.
Donnie Yen
I really enjoy laughing at work, and I find that it’s easier to do that when you’re shooting a comedy.
Natalie Zea
One thing I’ve really never had a problem with was memorizing lines. Most of the time I don’t memorize the lines until we’re on the set shooting the scene.
Dennis Quaid
The live performance aspect of shooting a multicamera sitcom is wonderful. You have that instant audience reaction.
Melissa Rauch
I am so stressed that my dentist told me I am grinding my teeth due to stress. So, every evening, I get shooting pain from my jaw to my head.
Alia Bhatt
Even when I’m training alone, I always prefer doing soccer-related stuff. On my own, I’ll run through cones or do some shooting exercises or pass the ball against the wall.
Alex Morgan
I was shooting in the low 70s and 60s by the time I was 12. That’s the great thing about golf. It doesn’t matter how old or young you are. If you’re 90 and can shoot a good score, people will want to play with you.
Bubba Watson
Shooting in Los Angeles is always pleasant and comfortable. Shooting in New York is like being on ‘Survivor.’
Bruce Eric Kaplan
The sport of shooting is my life.
Michael Diamond
From my experience of shooting ‘Tudors’ on the island of Ireland, you cannot predict the weather.
Natalie Dormer
I think sometimes I’m more fond of doing the research for the character because you learn so much. Sometimes shooting is really difficult because you wake up early and you’re always hurrying. And sometimes I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m here and there.
Bai Ling
After six, seven films, I started to get a little tired. Shooting takes a lot out of you.
Luc Besson
What I end up shooting is the situation. I shoot the composition and my subject is going to help the composition or not.
Annie Leibovitz
‘Manam’ will always be close to my heart, and I will cherish the the memories of shooting with my grandfather all my life.
Naga Chaitanya
What does it tell you that applications for guns since the shooting are up 41 percent in Colorado, and that our cameras found about 50 people in line at one gun shop yesterday outside Denver?
Brian Williams
In features, we’re languid: we shoot one or two scenes over, like, three days. In TV, the pace is so different. You’re shooting ten scenes a day, going way into the future or way back into the past. It’s complete madness, and I’m just trying to keep up with this really electric pace.
Priyanka Chopra
The film is made in the editing room. The shooting of the film is about shopping, almost. It’s like going to get all the ingredients together, and you’ve got to make sure before you leave the store that you got all the ingredients. And then you take those ingredients and you can make a good cake – or not.
Philip Seymour Hoffman
Believe me, I understand the need for easy and speedy. After a 12-hour day of shooting ‘Chopped,’ say, I’m talking stir-fry, spaghetti, heck, peanut-butter sandwiches. But that’s not about the joy of food. That’s survival.
Ted Allen
I deal with this spiritual issue every day – either shooting or processing or sorting or discussing or having conversations – I’m in constant contact with it.
Leonard Nimoy
Shooting should not be about delivering something I’ve prepared; it should be a live process of finding things out. When things happen that you haven’t planned, that’s when the film comes alive.
Stellan Skarsgard
Once I see my mother’s smiling face, I forget all the shooting pressures and tensions. I am the happiest person at that moment.
Prabhas
Shooting a film with seven to eight actors together is complicated sometimes because you have to cover everybody.
Laurence Fishburne
Currently I am working on another three books, doing a lot of magazine work, am shooting for fifteen stock agencies, plus my own photo library – all this keeps me quite busy!
Nigel Dennis
Big shots are only little shots who keep shooting.
Christopher Morley
Once I got to the OTC they knew more about the physical aspects of shooting, and knew which muscles were more important to have trained and geared us a program around that.
Nancy Johnson
Even a fiction film is hard to end. You can going on shooting and editing a documentary forever.
Leos Carax
On my first day shooting ’13 Going on 30,’ Jennifer Garner had yellow tulips sent to my trailer. I’ll never forget them.
Christa B. Allen
Shooting a fight is like shooting any other scene. You have to tell a story using a very specific choreography.
David Leitch
I still shoot film. I like what film does, how it renders things, Also, when I’m shooting from the air, I want to have as large a negative as I can.
David Maisel
I originally wanted to go into sports, but my first concert was KISS at the shooting of ‘KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park.’ The minute I saw Gene and Paul… it was all over. I knew that’s what I wanted to do.
Steven Adler
Once, while shooting in Pune, I decided to experiment and ordered an item named Shepherd’s Pie. I thoroughly relished it, only to be later informed that what I had was beef. I couldn’t sleep that night! My only consolation was that the cow was English, not Indian!
Rohini Hattangadi
I could be shooting myself in the foot, but in some ways, I feel I’ve said all I’ve needed to say when to comes to, say, the ‘X-Men.’ I think I’ve hit the bright points, I think I’ve hit what I wanted to hit, and I can be happy moving on doing other things.
Marjorie Liu
I didn’t get to see Predator until halfway through shooting. It was great to get an education while I was shooting because it made me excited to be part of this legacy.
Sanaa Lathan
I auditioned for ‘Loving’ two years before we started shooting, so in the hopes that I would be playing Mildred, I watched it again. Also it’s one of the best documentaries I’ve seen. I found this couple interminably fascinating; even if I didn’t get the part, I just wanted to know more about them and their story.
Ruth Negga
Kolkata is a great city, has great food and great people. We had some problems finding the kind of old buildings we were looking for, and even handling the crowds, but on the whole it was fun shooting there.
Sanjay Dutt
I always messed around a little bit growing up, just shooting with my left hand, but now I’m actually getting real work in with my left hand. I think it’s going to be a big help.
Devin Booker
Immediately after the San Bernardino shooting, when it was unclear whether Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik were motivated by a terroristic ideology, the focus of the conversation was on gun laws.
Lawrence M. Krauss
You learn tricks to make action look more dynamic – having the fight come toward you or shooting on a longer lens to compress the speed.
David Leitch
As an actor, if you want to while shooting, you can run back to your trailer and take a nap. But you cannot do that while directing.
Misha Collins
I was in Hyderabad shooting for a Telugu film with Mahesh Babu when Aamir called, saying he wanted me to play the widow Jwala in ‘Mangal Pandey.’
Amisha Patel
I got a series with the WB next year. We start shooting in July. It’s going to be called Safe Harbor, and it’s an hour show. It’s a Spelling show and will follow 7th Heaven.
Gregory Harrison
When you’re shooting a movie that’s not necessarily a huge budget, you have to think about what you can leave out and still make it interesting.
Mark Sheppard
We actually started shooting the ‘Mockingjay’ movies before ‘Catching Fire’ was released.
Francis Lawrence
When you’re shooting, there’s terrible pressure, and you never switch off. Every day is like the day before an exam; it’s relentless.
Lenny Abrahamson
When I was little, I was very loud and loved performing in front of people. I was fearless. When I hit puberty, I became very shy and self-conscious. I still get nervous sometimes before shooting and definitely before big auditions.
Brianna Brown
Working on a film is different from working in an office. You spend 16-hour days together; you share stories and become really close. But, when you finish shooting, you don’t see each other again.
Shenaz Treasury
There are films that look very interesting when on paper, but things change while shooting. At times, things changed during post-production, and I see no reason to blame anything on anyone. It is a collaborative effort. If it failed, we should face it.
Kartik Aaryan
Meditation is a great way to keep my body well-centered while juggling shooting schedules and recording sessions.
Ariana Grande
In scoring we have a lot that was not evident in the shooting. The radio is on all the time.
Debbie Allen
The little town I was brought up in, I’d go to the film society to these very extreme sorts of films that you wouldn’t normally see in the movie houses. But I never dreamed that I would get into the position to be shooting movies equivalent to the ones I loved as a kid.
Roger Deakins
I always get everyone prepared so there aren’t so many arguments on set. I have a policy that the first thing I do in the morning is go over to the trailers and discuss exactly what we’re shooting that day. It’s time-consuming, but it reduces the chances of ‘misunderstandings’ on set.
Tony Scott
I was shooting for ‘Bobby Jasoos’ when I was offered ‘Khamoshiyan.’
Ali Fazal
I love guns. I love shooting guns.
Sarah Shahi
I think a lot of times, especially for certain stories, photographers travel together for safety reasons, and they also invariably cross paths. But you could have 10 photographers shooting together in the same spot but capturing different images.
Carol Guzy
150 shooting days is quite normal, which is not the case in Hollywood, as I am told. Most of the big films there are done in 70 or 80 days.
S. S. Rajamouli
Shooting a music video sometimes can be a job.
Kyle
The entire time I was up shooting ‘Suits,’ I was running back to my trailer to help get ‘Nine Circles’ produced. It’s a no-brainer for me to keep that part of life alive.
Patrick J. Adams
I didn’t audition for the part! The role was offered to me, and I was so excited to be a part of ‘The Haunting Hour.’ It is such a cool show and it was so much fun shooting the ‘Intruders.’
Willow Shields
In daytime, you’re shooting an episode a day, which is on average about 90 pages of script a day. That is very hectic. On ‘90210,’ you get to work through it a little more. You’re not just flying through it just to get it done.
Trevor Donovan
I never really lost touch with video games. Even while shooting ’10 Cloverfield Lane,’ I brought my PlayStation with me, the most portable of all the consoles, and was playing every night.
Dan Trachtenberg
The thing that strikes you most about being a soldier in a war zone and in action to the small extent that I was, when actually people start shooting, which happened to me a couple of times, everything goes on automatic and there’s a feeling of tremendous elevation and even elation.
Mark Helprin
I’ll need every ounce that I have to drive it through. Film and TV require that energy. Sometimes fight scenes can be pretty intense. When I was shooting ‘Heaven’ it was truly guerrilla film-making.
Karl Urban
You can be in Ohio and shoot your own web series, if you want. If this had been around when I was in high school, I can guarantee you that my friends and I would have been shooting our own television shows and putting them online and trying to get as many hits as possible.
Busy Philipps
Nothing prepares you for shooting in the sea. Some days the sea is choppy, some days the waves are long. When there is no wind, it’s fantastic to shoot, but your brain is burning because of the heat. You are shooting hand-held and taking a crane on a boat, which is risky since you can get toppled over.
Rajiv Menon
‘Terrible’ is not a word I would use in shooting romantic scenes with Scott Speedman.
Jessy Schram
Shooting a movie should be fun! It’s not a real job. It can be hard, but at the end of the day, we’re dressing up and playing pretend.
Taika Waititi
Something like ‘The Matrix’ would be ideal, something where it’s super agents and wire work and special effects – not necessarily running from bombs and shooting people. Something more sleek, like an assassin.
Nadine Velazquez
I run a fast pace on my sets, man. I like the energy of the scene to be the energy on the set. I think it affects the actors, and I think it affects the crew. There’s that sensation like you’re really shooting it for real, like in a documentary.
Daniel Espinosa
I am not interested in shooting new things – I am interested to see things new.
Ernst Haas
We had a week off in the middle of shooting, but as soon as everyone stopped, we all went down with six different types of flu and other unmentionable diseases.
Johnny Vegas
There’s a fashion for a macho style of filmmaking. How long can your longest take be? And shooting things in one shot. For me, if you can sort of disappear and make people feel that they are there, that involves massive amounts of work.
Lenny Abrahamson
I like shooting movies in Thailand very much because the government is so cooperative there. The police help you to close the roads for shooting.
Alan Mak
I loved killing zombies in ‘Day of the Dead.’ I basically welcome anything that involves being dirty or bloody or shooting guns.
AnnaLynne McCord
I can’t really envision a time when I’m not shooting something.
Martin Scorsese
Shooting on location and dressing locations in Los Angeles is shockingly expensive, especially when you’re talking about webseries-level budgets, so the opportunity to build our sets in YouTube’s space gives us a lot more room in our budget in being able to create the world of ‘VGHS’ properly.
Freddie Wong
Shooting clay targets is a very cleansing experience. It’s very relaxing. It takes a lot of concentration. It’s also very social, since you’re usually shooting with friends. You can talk and forget about almost anything else that’s on your mind.
Tom Selleck
When we were shooting ‘Oz,’ my wife was doing ‘Beauty and the Beast’ on Broadway, singing and dancing. It was an interesting dichotomy in our house.
J. K. Simmons
I really, really liked shooting and doing the scene with Emilia Clarke and Peter Dinklage at the end of ‘Winds of Winter,’ when she gives him the Hand of the Queen. Because we shot it very simply. We felt like we had managed to do something that was visual but really was a very intimate scene between two people.
Miguel Sapochnik
One of my first days shooting on ‘Game of Thrones’ was possibly the coldest day I’ve ever experienced in my life, and that sticks out especially because I’d never, ever done anything before.
Isaac Hempstead Wright
I made a big mistake with him the first day I shot. We’re shooting the scene where I come back from the party, the dance, in the sleigh with Julie Christie and we turn the corner and go past the camera and the camera follows us just a little bit and we disappear.
Rod Steiger
I like to try to shoot in the city in a way that allows the city to go about its business while we’re shooting, and that’s always a challenge because, unfortunately, people on the street don’t know not to look in the camera or interact with the actors.
Noah Baumbach
I started shooting ‘The Defenders’ two days after I wrapped’ Friday Night Lights.’ I was doing research for ‘The Defenders’ throughout – interviewing lawyers and sitting in courtrooms just to watch – but there’s something fun about throwing yourself in the water and learning by doing.
Jurnee Smollett-Bell
I understand the protests, but not the shooting and the attempts to bring down the state. We cannot allow hatred to control our lives. We must remain unified to defeat this evil.
Boris Trajkovski
Memorising my lines is actually something I do fairly well. I look at it a few times and it is pretty much there. When your shooting on TV, they do it in such a way that it is pretty easy.
Adam Lamberg
Most people have already seen a cosmic collision. If you’ve seen a shooting star ever, you’ve seen a cosmic collision, because a shooting star is not a star. It’s a tiny dust or pea sized fragment of an asteroid or a comet hitting our atmosphere and burning up as it hits in, as it comes in.
Heidi Hammel
I’m not very aware of styles. We never talk about styles before we start shooting, or even during shooting, because I think the film will bring you there.
Wong Kar-wai
Shooting in Japan was one of the best working experiences of my entire life.
Aidy Bryant
I love the action that I’m able to do. I grew up in Maine, outdoors and playing with the boys and shooting skeet. I have my girly side, too. But, I do like playing the strong female roles, especially now with something as simple as Twitter, where you’ve got young women following you.
Rachel Nichols
I can still recall the thrill of shooting my first film.
Conrad Hall
Offensively, Lowry is a great catch-and-shoot player from deep, and he’s very comfortable shooting the trey off the bounce in isolations and pick-and-roll.
C. J. McCollum
It’s hard to go back to shooting contemporary apartment interiors after you shoot something like ‘Mudbound.’
Rachel Morrison
Working on ‘Dexter’ is like shooting one big movie every year.
David Zayas
Whenever I am shooting in Chennai, I spend most of my time with my wife and kids. Sometimes, I take my kids to the shooting spot, and they just love it.
Vijay Sethupathi
What made us different from other westerns was the fact that ‘Gunsmoke’ wasn’t just action and a lot of shooting; they were character-study shows.
James Arness
Stop making the same games about shooting something and driving; try something else. There is a market for that.
David Cage
You don’t send people to prison on the basis of what other people imagine, or on the basis of media sound bites like ‘shooting an unarmed child,’ when that ‘child’ was beating him bloody.
Thomas Sowell
I often find during a day of shooting I will speak in an American accent all day long when I’m doing dialogue. At the end of the day, it often takes an effort when I’m talking to my fiancee to bring my English back just because you’re so used to speaking that way.
Henry Cavill
Once I finished writing the script, I couldn’t find my Pandi. It was actually little difficult to cast for the role. One fine day, when I was shooting for ‘Vada Chennai’, Raj Kiran’s name just popped into my head.
Dhanush
They are shooting The Thief Lord in Venice at the moment.
Cornelia Funke
It was when I was shooting for a Telugu film in Hyderabad when director Meher Ramesh approached me for ‘Veera Kannadiga.’ I was game to explore a new language and said yes.
Anita Hassanandani Reddy
I went on a cross-country trip with three buddies to find out what our generation is about. I bought a video camera, started shooting, learned as I went, and ended up with ‘Our Time,’ a feature-length documentary about what it’s like to be young in America. I was hooked.
Matthew Heineman
I am just a regular dude who happened to make it. That’s all I am, man. Maybe I was preparing myself in some lifetime to become this person, but I never thought I’d have every rocket shooting off at one time.
Guy Fieri
Well, like any time you’re shooting documentary stuff, you’ve got to be in the moment, and you’ve got to be able to be in control enough to capture what’s happening.
Brian De Palma
Shooting in sequence, I think it intensifies everybody’s relationship, the crew, the actors. You have to be very focused, and shooting at night is a challenge because you get tired. I think it requires a special kind of concentration, but it’s also exhilarating.
Steve Buscemi
No week is ever the same in my world! An average week in my life changes based on my shooting schedule, if I’m promoting a project, or anything else I have going on.
Shemar Moore
In ‘Haraamkhor,’ I have explored a few things which I wouldn’t have been able to do in bigger films. The process of shooting this film was so organic that it enhanced me as an actor and an artiste.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui
It’s just about going out and getting the shot, so I have a great understanding of how to execute it, so that really helps me, and also having a good understanding of all the action that I’m shooting, it helps me in determining how I’m going to capture it.
David R. Ellis
Shooting is nothing. Anybody can shoot. The big charge is putting on a show for the crowd.
Pete Maravich
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.
Anthony Michael Hall
Doing a sitcom is like doing a play – you rehearse for three or four days, and then you shoot what you rehearsed on Friday night in front of an audience. An hour-long drama is like shooting a movie. You’re shooting 13-14 hour days. The endurance itself is different.
James Belushi
Google X is here to do moonshot-type projects. Not just shooting to the moon, but bringing the moon back to Earth.
Sebastian Thrun
Ross Hunter was my assistant on Take Me to Town, He was a young man, an actor before that, and learned a lot on the picture. During shooting, Goldstein left, and Ross was most pleasant. He never interfered.
Douglas Sirk
I love directing more than anything in the world, and I love being in the editing room. I love cutting. When I’m shooting, I cut it in my head anyway. That’s not to say that it always turns out that way, but you have a sense when you’re composing a sequence or a scene how you want it to look anyway.
Hart Bochner
Shooting guns is not something I would do in my spare time. I really don’t understand why Americans can purchase guns so easily and why they use them for sporting purposes.
Lena Headey
We shot ‘Breaking Bad’ on film; we capture ‘Better Call Saul’ digitally. In the shooting of ‘Breaking Bad,’ we would have this steady, handheld, cinema verite sort of look, so we purposely went the opposite way with ‘Better Call Saul’ – locked in the cameras and made the movements smoother and more mechanical.
Vince Gilligan
I love long-range rifle shooting. I like anything that deals with precision. I also find that with archery. On my ranch, I have my own range with 3-D targets of animals and hay bales from different distances.
Paul Walker
When I’m documenting, for example, a story on women in Afghanistan, I will do a huge amount of research and a lot of time on the ground just getting to know the women before I even start shooting.
Lynsey Addario
By the first week of shooting, you know exactly where your film is heading based on the psychology of your director.
Jodie Foster
I think there has only been one time in my entire career that I’ve ever gone back to shoot a scene. And it was a scene that, when we were shooting it, we knew that it wasn’t working. We knew there was a disagreement between the actor and director. So, we went back.
Melissa Leo
When not shooting, I love to catch up on my sleep.
Siddharth Shukla
When I read the script of ‘Karu,’ there was a spark within, and I instantly connected with the story. I was emotionally attached to the story. After we finished shooting, I was so attached to the kid who played my daughter, I wanted to adopt her. That’s how strong my emotional attachment was with the role and the story.
Sai Pallavi
When you’re shooting with long lenses, even if you’re shooting a close-up, you feel the air, the distance between the camera and the subject.
Emmanuel Lubezki
You have to relax when you’re shooting an arrow. You can’t be tense. And that just helps, in your day-to-day life.
Stephen Amell
We have wasted History like a bunch of drunks shooting dice back in the men’s crapper of the local bar.
Charles Bukowski
I had a good time shooting in New Zealand. I almost bought a home there while I was there, because I loved it so much.
Josh Hartnett
When I heard about how big a star Puneeth Rajkumar is, I was anxious about working with him. It was only after we began shooting that I realized how chilled-out and down-to-earth he actually is. We worked hard on the set but also had fun doing so.
Erica Fernandes
People working in films are somewhat like gypsies: we move from set to set and spent weeks, sometimes even longer working while shooting a film. Right from the spot boys to the make-up guys and cast and crew, we become a kind of family.
Dulquer Salmaan
The Charleston shooting is a result of an ingrained culture of racism and a history of terrorism in America. It should be covered as such.
Anthea Butler
Sometimes, we have to turn our camera to a mirror to shoot something, and people think, ‘Oh, that’s very stylish.’ Yes it is, but at the same time, we did it because we are shooting in a very small space, and that was our only option.
Wong Kar-wai
Before I went to Liverpool, I was a striker and then sometimes a No. 8 or No. 10, and my thing was shooting, finishing, and long-distance shots.
Raheem Sterling
If you’re shooting a really serious, dramatic scene, personally I wouldn’t want to look at the camera.
Lily-Rose Depp
It’s not unexpected that shooting massive amounts of water, sand, and chemicals at high pressure into the earth to shatter shale and release natural gas might shake things up. But earthquakes aren’t the worst problem with fracking.
David Suzuki
I definitely think there was some overacting on the part of the customers and the wait staff. The people who came in during the shooting were clearly there to have a moment on television, and that’s fine.
Rocco DiSpirito
Mississippi Mermaid was a very special experience because we only had the dialogues for the scenes we were shooting the night before.
Catherine Deneuve
Maybe once in a while, you know, after a hard day of shooting or something like that, I’d kick back.
Tommy Chong
The main thing is confidence. I’m gaining more and more confidence to do whatever I want to do on the basketball court, whether it is shooting threes or sprinting to the rim and finishing or ball handling. I’m confident enough because I have worked on it that I am going to do the exact same things in the game.
Jimmy Butler
The crazy thing about ‘Hook’ was it was one of the movies in town that everybody knew about. It was the biggest film shooting in Hollywood at the time and the idea of Robin Williams playing Peter Pan really captured everybody’s imagination.
Dante Basco
To establish yourself as a leading man, you’re shooting for the smallest point on the target, and you get a lot of judgment thrown at you. It takes a lot for them to get past everything and just watch your art and what you’re doing.
Josh Holloway
I love filming in London. In New York, every street is familiar because you have seen it in a movie. They mythologise their own city. You’re forever trying to get down streets that have been blocked off because of shooting. In London, they don’t put up with it; they’re grumpy.
Douglas Hodge
We’re used to shooting our own stuff on our cellphones. We’re used to capturing everything.
Eloise Mumford
It was many years ago when I started shooting and I took it up as a complete hobby and a pastime.
Abhinav Bindra
Everything I do with my day is related to Superwoman. I’m either doing conference calls or writing a script or reading a script, editing a video, shooting a video.
Lilly Singh
Television moves fast, and you don’t have the indulgences you have when you’re shooting movies of so many takes because there are tight deadlines.
Dev Patel
I was not the producer of ‘Vaanaprastham’ earlier. The first producers backed out when they became doubtful about the monetary benefits. I do not blame them. But as an actor, I wanted to make the film. So, I told Shaji sir that I would produce the film. It was only then we started shooting.
Mohanlal
I’m shooting for longevity. The road is hard on your body.
Horace Silver
I remember doing a little student film where we had a guy that couldn’t pull focus. We ended up spending three times the amount of time shooting this thing as opposed to if the guy could’ve just pulled focus.
Stephen Amell
Oftentimes, the only evidence left behind at the scene of a shooting are bullet shell casings.
Grace Meng
There’s still a lot of athletes in the NBA, but shooters are very valuable. I take a lot of pride shooting, so I feel like it’s going to be big for me.
Devin Booker
I’m interested to go other places, I’ve been the boy in the bubble since we’ve been shooting, I need to go travel a little bit, see where the action is, other than going to see family, of course.
George Eads
When you have to work with and exist amongst cynical, burned-out personnel on a set, it doesn’t matter what you’re shooting or how much you’re being paid – it’s not worth it.
Henry Rollins
A movie goes from several stages, from idea to script. As you continue shooting, you will make some adjustments. You’re constantly adjusting. It’s like a piece of music. You’re constantly trying to make it better.
Robert Rodriguez
Using the right of veto would be shooting the Americans in the back.
Dominique de Villepin
You’re shooting yourself in the foot if you isolate or disempower the moderates.
Mohamed ElBaradei
I am going to be on ‘True Blood.’ It was really exciting. I had a great time shooting it. I spent the last nine months shooting this season and it was very secretive, very sexy, a lot of blood and fangs.
Scott Foley
There were no bizarre action sequences so to say but I broke my foot while shooting. It is a superstition where they say if an actor breaks a foot or injures himself during the shoot then the film goes on to become a hit. So let’s just say this time I take the credit for the success of ‘Dhoom 3’.
Uday Chopra
Every other movie is one of those action things. I mean, ‘Lost in Space’? A bunch of good actors running around shooting at special effects on a soundstage? I took my kids to see that and felt like I was on an acid trip.
Tom Berenger
A critic is someone who never actually goes to the battle, yet who afterwards comes out shooting the wounded.
Tyne Daly
I don’t do a lot of rehearsal. I don’t like rehearsals. I rehearse the day or morning. I spend one hour and a half with all the actors, and we go over the scenes, and we change it and change the dialogue, and we do a lot of things to it, but prior to shooting, I don’t really rehearse.
Susanne Bier
You do need to edit yourself as you shoot because you have fewer options in a smaller movie. In other words, when I’m shooting a big movie, and I got an 85 day shooting schedule or more, then I’m saying I have enough time to shoot option A and B and C and D for every scene.
David Twohy
The first year we actually did a lot of night shooting and the writers weren’t even allowed on location.
James MacArthur
My dad and I used to shoot little one-stop animations on an old 8mm film camera when I was no more than 7 or 8, and when he was away at work, I would keep shooting nonsensical, short animated films using ‘Star Wars’ figures or Smurfs – depended what the narrative was.
Duncan Jones
Believe me, when I finish shooting ‘Mad Men,’ there’s a huge chunk of time where I have a really hard time leaving my house without fake lashes on. Which is a complex because I’m not very good at applying fake lashes.
Jessica Pare
With ‘Mad Men,’ you feel like you’re a member of Seal Team Six when you’re shooting.
Ben Feldman
I feel mindless comedies make you relax – there are times when I come from shooting and watch comedy shows; they really change my mood.
Anita Hassanandani Reddy
I record a podcast, ‘Shondaland Revealed,’ every week while we are shooting.
Betsy Beers
When I am shooting a film, then everything goes soft focus. My family also complains that I don’t give them time.
Aamir Khan
I don’t expect an overnight change of all desktops to what the US Military used to call B3 level security. And even that would not stop users from shooting themselves into the foot.
Wietse Venema
The music that I listen to on set really varies. When I need lots of energy and I’m dying down towards the day, I need to play hip hop or rap or else my energy just crashes after a long day. When I’m shooting something moody or where I have to play it down a bit, I’ll play Lana Del Rey or something more mellow.
Camila Morrone
In television you don’t have a lot of time to spend with the role or the script. Typically you get a script a week prior to shooting. Sometimes it’s even less time, not enough time to dream about the role.
Chadwick Boseman
Just seeing the progression, the evolution of the NBA game, I feel like you have a lot of big men shooting 3s.
Al Horford
In shooting, you need to be dumb.
Abhinav Bindra
One of the challenges obviously with doing an accent from a time period early in history is that there aren’t recordings. You would never really get the opportunity to hear exactly what you were shooting for.
Will Poulter
I have very strong relationships with my actors when I’m shooting. When you love an actor’s work, you always feel you have to go further, and you make several films together. One film just gives you time to get acquainted.
Claire Denis
I’d love to do some bedtime stories for kids or that kind of thing. But with the demands of the shooting schedule and balancing the demands of being a single mother, it’s a wonder you can squeeze in anything.
Roma Downey
When you are shooting in a conventional way, you put nets around yourself. It’s very hard to fall and hit the ground. You can always manipulate things to make it not embarrassing. If the scene is a little bit bad, you can polish it or even take it out. You can hide your mistakes.
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Working on location is ideal because you enter the character and the story. Shooting at a studio near home, there’s a certain split. But on location, you forget the real world, and when you come back to reality, just going to the market can be traumatic.
Sondra Locke
Shooting stuff on horseback is more complicated and time consuming than anything else.
Mark Addy
I was a million percent in love with Edward Scissorhands. I remember looking in the mirror on the last day of shooting… and thinking how sad I was to be saying goodbye to Edward.
Johnny Depp
I am the kind who is always on time while shooting.
Ashish Sharma
People thought we were crazy for starting a record company. They really thought I was shooting myself in the foot.
John Prine
Programmers have been wandering out and shooting a shotgun into the night sky and hoping they hit something, and I end up paying $150 for channels full of nothing I want to watch.
Rick Smolan
Vetrimaaran expects his actors to be spontaneous. Since he mostly prefers shooting in live locations, you have to be prepared for everything when you work with him.
Aishwarya Rajesh
When I think about defending Kyrie, I think about respect. His shooting percentages were close to 50/40/90 as a 19-year-old rookie. When you come into this league with numbers like that, defenders have to respect your jumper.
C. J. McCollum
I am who I am, in terms of shooting from the hip occasionally.
Kevin Pietersen
Coming back to Guess is so natural for me; they’re my family. I always love being back, and to be able to come home and be in Malibu across the street from my high school shooting this campaign is absolutely amazing and just feels like the right thing.
Gigi Hadid
On shooting days, I have all my accessories, and I style the final look.
Ashley Madekwe
The four of us couldn’t have made a record with the time left over when we were shooting the show. We were on stage from 7.30 in the morning ’til 7 at night. Later on, when there was a break from filming, and we were sick of doing it the old way.
Peter Tork
I wanted ‘Night of the Living Dead’ to look naturalistic, but we weren’t able to do it because we were shooting with a blimped 35mm camera, which is automatically static.
George A. Romero
You never hear about a pit bull doing anything good in the media. And they have a stigma to them… and, in many ways, pit bulls are like young African-American males. Whenever you see us in the news, it’s for getting shot and killed or shooting and killing somebody – for being a stereotype.
Ryan Coogler
The first time I met Brando was on a street corner. I was 14. He was walking down the street, and I saw him coming, and I thought, ‘It’s Marlon Brando.’ And he was wearing what turned out to be his outfit from ‘On the Waterfront,’ because he was shooting.
Peter Bogdanovich
I’m a good putter. Like good shooters, just keep shooting. I’m just going to keep putting, and they’re going to start going in.
Jimmy Walker
When I was running Atari, violence against humanoid figures was not allowed. We’d let you shoot at a tank… but we drew the line at shooting at people, with blood splattering everywhere.
Nolan Bushnell
The director took my face in his hands and asked me to show him my teeth, as with a horse. This happened on a Wednesday, and by the following Monday I was shooting.
Victoria Abril
It’s a fun thing to do: Go to a shooting range with a buddy, knock off a few rounds, release stress.
Laurie Holden
I remember seeing Bill Hurt in New York once. I talked to him on the phone around 1988 and that’s about it. I was shooting in New York and somebody said Glenn Close came by the set.
Tom Berenger
I love doing sitcoms. I love doing comedy. I love the whole shooting match.
Rachael Harris
My routine is similar to that of a nomad. But I crave for the comforts enjoyed by a normal girl. In fact, while shooting for my debut film, ‘Sanam Teri Kasam,’ I turned my vanity van into my room.
Mawra Hocane
I discovered shooting and filmmaking around the time all of the software became affordable to anyone with a PC.
Seth Gordon
For target shooting, that’s okay. Get a license and go to the range. For defense of the home, that’s why we have police departments.
James Brady
Actually shooting a 3-D movie is not different at all than making a 2-D one. You never really notice that you’re making a 3-D movie. The terminology used around the set is a little bit different, but other than that, you’d never know.
Billy Burke
I just had my 30th birthday and we went turkey shooting. It’s what I wanted to do, so we went.
Kelly Clarkson
The world fell apart. Sirhan Sirhan shot Bobby Kennedy. Why were people shooting all the Kennedys? Had the country gone mad?
Lorna Luft
I can’t be under the weight of the character for a 14-hour shooting day. I don’t think anybody can do that.
Robert Loggia
Yeah, I had a tremendous time shooting in Nebraska. I like that state a lot, all over it.
Sean Penn
Shooting in Jaipur was one of the best experiences of my life. The city is culturally quite rich, and each part of it has a history.
Shaheer Sheikh
I’ve got an extra-specific story about Dr. Dre. I saw him when I was 9 years old in Compton – him and Tupac. They were shooting the second ‘California Love’ video. My pops had seen him and ran back to the house and got me, put me on his neck, and we stood there watching Dre and Pac in a Bentley.
Kendrick Lamar
I go through periods, usually when I’m editing and shooting, of seeing only old films.
Martin Scorsese
You could write your fingers off for 25 years… and never get the kind of hearing you could get from shooting off your mouth on television for a half hour every week.
Jack Germond
Shooting on film is great because it imparts discipline: What do you need to see so you’re not finding it in the camera. When I’m shooting, I have the scene in mind, where I’m going to have certain lines. I learned to overlap and to shoot more than I think I need. That was the learning curve.
Dee Rees
‘Battlestar’ was 22 episodes – 9 to 10 months a year – and we were exhausted. You finish shooting, and the last thing you want to do is go back to work. You want those 3 months off because you’re tired – it’s a grueling shooting schedule.
Katee Sackhoff
We all write, but the script is a blueprint. We can lose whole scenes when we’re shooting.
Shawn Wayans
I don’t do a film with which I myself won’t be happy. More than believing in the script, it should be fun shooting it.
Nushrat Bharucha
Shooting threes is always going to be what I do best.
Kyle Korver
Some actors specialize in shooting weapons and punching people. Some have the market on playing buffoons cornered, others specialize in roles that require heavy makeup or outrageous wardrobe. Some trade exclusively in a post-ironic blase attitude.
Rob Lowe
A lot of the time, we’re shooting summer campaigns in winter because they have to come out the next season. It’s the hardest to feel great in a bikini when it’s cold… so I appreciate a swimsuit shoot that’s in warm weather.
Gigi Hadid
When you’re shooting a network television show it inevitably starts airing a few episodes in, and depending on the ratings and the response from the public, you find yourself tweaking your performance or the scripts go in a different direction.
Lizzy Caplan
I like making black and white films in natural surroundings, but I much prefer shooting a color film inside a studio where the colors are easier to control.
Claude Chabrol
You get to the rink, stretch for 10-15 minutes, go on the ice 20 minutes before practice starts and do goalie drills, practice for an hour, then stay on the ice for about 10-15 minutes to do extra shooting.
Henrik Lundqvist
I was very new to working in front of the camera when I started shooting ‘Gatsby’, so I set myself the mission of gleaning as much information as possible out of the much more experienced actors. The cast was astoundingly talented.
Elizabeth Debicki
You can teach all the other stuff, you know. You can teach shooting the ball, you can teach having a good touch… passing and whatnot, but when you get out there on the field, it’s just a mindset you need to go into the game with.
Freddy Adu
I guess I’m used to TV where we don’t really rehearse. You block it out, and then you just start shooting.
Adam Scott
I know that some people think differently about pilots, but I really enjoyed shooting ‘Awakening’.
Lucy Griffiths
Zombies, what are you going to do with them? Just keep chopping them up, shooting at them, shooting at them.
Martin Scorsese
English is my first language, but when I started shooting for ‘Definition of Fear,’ I actually had trouble with my lines! It was so weird, because I never have trouble with my lines in Hindi!
Jacqueline Fernandez
I’m busy working on every aspect of my game – defense, shooting, rebounding – but I really want to become a better overall team player. Help my teammates become better players out on the court in order to win more ball games.
Kevin Durant
I have a few filmmaker friends who are known for shooting super-fast, and they say that you don’t have the time to over-think things and how that helps things out creatively.
Wes Ball
Every single director-actor I talked to, from Warren Beatty to Clint Eastwood to George Clooney, said the biggest mistake they made is not shooting enough footage of themselves.
Ben Affleck
When I was shooting ‘Mud,’ every day was my favourite! I had so much fun on this film and loved working with all the cast and crew! It was a great experience.
Tye Sheridan
‘Punda’ marks my entry into Kannada and ‘Krishnaleelai’ will be my Tamil debut. It was a good experience shooting for both the films.
Meghana Raj
When I begin shooting, I get nervous, as I am under pressure to do my job well.
Song Hye-kyo
I’m not an NRA member, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t appreciate shooting blanks out of a machine gun.
Bryce Dallas Howard
There’s just no real job security when you’re shooting a show about an apocalypse, and anybody could die at any time.
Melissa McBride
At 7, I was shooting 3s with so much ease that the guys at the neighborhood park were impressed. Michael Jordan was one of the best humans to walk the earth in my eyes, third only to Jesus and my mother.
Angie Thomas
With ‘Grimm,’ it’s a lot of fun for me to be able to play within the familiar world of fairy tales. As for satisfying my inner fantasy geek, anything that would have me wielding a sword or shooting a bow would be a dream.
Sasha Roiz
In TV, you’re basically shooting an episode in 10 to 14 days; 14 days is a luxury situation. And in film, you have anywhere from a month to three months, or it can be even longer than that, depending on what the production is.
Chadwick Boseman
For ‘City of Ghosts,’ I really didn’t speak any Arabic. It obviously made it more difficult, but I also found it to be an advantage while shooting. It allowed me to focus on the emotion of the scene as opposed to just chasing dialogue.
Matthew Heineman
I have this home in New York, I have a long-term relationship with my boyfriend, who’s from Australia, and I had this business that I had maintain. Even though I wasn’t actively shooting, there’s a lot of peripheral work.
Claire Danes
Considering the regular use of make-up and the fact that I’m under the glare of the harsh shooting lights practically all the time, I’m adamant about using really strong cleansing milk to get the make-up off my skin, and I never sleep with make-up on, however tired I am.
Genelia D’Souza
It is not as though the process of production holds any mystery for me, I know exactly what it involves and I know the predominant concern in shooting one of those things is production values – or as they would say, seeing it all up there on screen.
Atom Egoyan
When you’re shooting a movie, it’s two months of your life usually. You don’t really have time to see anybody else. Your friends are put on hold while you’re shooting, and what you have is the family that you create on set.
Odette Annable
I would rather be hired solely for my talent, not just to fill a quota. I also don’t want to shoot just any studio movie just to say I’m shooting studio movies – for me, quality of the material comes first, and if eventually that leads to a really great studio project, then that’s a bonus.
Reed Morano
I always prefer shooting on locations, because when I’m at home, it’s harder to sort of get lost in the world of whatever you’re making. It does, it does force this bond and community amongst a group.
Max Minghella
I get a lot of dramas, but I’d like to do a romantic comedy type of movie; that’d be a nice step for me. No more screaming or running or shooting… for one movie where I can just be in love with a boy.
Serinda Swan
When we’re not shooting ‘Ballers,’ we’re always on the hunt for other work. As actors, we’ve never satisfied with just one thing.
Jazmyn Simon
My first film would have been ‘Rough,’ and it got delayed. ‘Venkatadri Express’ released first and became a big success. I signed ‘Venkatadri’ after 15 days of shooting for ‘Rough’. I had lot of faith in the script, and I feel luck plays a major part.
Rakul Preet Singh
I have died in so many spectacular ways, and I remember shooting them all, too. I imagine all those deaths will flash in front of me when I’m on my death bed, faced with the real thing.
John Hurt
Whenever some kind of mass shooting or any other kind of violent activity takes place, we kind of hold our breath until we are sure that no Muslim was involved, because we know that these incidents will be treated differently if a Muslim is involved versus if somebody of another background is involved.
Ibrahim Hooper
There is no question that Darren Wilson caused the death of Michael Brown by shooting him, but the inquiry does not end there. The law authorizes a law enforcement officer to use deadly force in certain situations. The law allows all people to use deadly force to defend themselves in certain situations.
Robert P. McCulloch
My memory of those places is better than my pictures. That’s why I get much more satisfaction out of shooting thematic work that has to do with an idea that I’m searching for, or searching to express.
Leonard Nimoy
Donald Trump called for the closing of borders to Muslims; John McCain said, in response to the President’s address on the San Bernardino shooting, that ‘this is the war of our time.’ As that shooting shows, we react to terrorism with far more intensity than we do to an ordinary crime.
Lawrence M. Krauss
Fortunately we’ve been shooting in North Carolina which means we’re not in LA where you can hear people talking about you and you know so much about what’s going on in the business.
Katie Holmes
While deficits are often inflationary and always pernicious, curing them by raising taxes is equivalent to curing an illness by shooting the patient.
Murray Rothbard
My uncle used to take me out at night shooting rabbits.
Matt Berry
Bette Midler is this sort of laser-precise whirlwind. We only worked together for two days, but her precision, before even shooting, was remarkable.
Alex Lawther
Most bayonets throughout history have probably not been used because soldiers just can’t do it, something holds them back… the same goes for shooting the enemy. We’ve got this fascinating evidence from the Second World War, and also from other wars, that most soldiers couldn’t do it.
Rutger Bregman
I dropped out of school at 17 and joined the Irish band The Frames, getting my first glimpse into the world of professional film making while shooting of a number of rock videos.
John Carney
I never talk about shooting anybody, but I do acknowledge I was a member of the IRA, and as a member of the IRA, I obviously engaged in fighting back against the British army.
Martin McGuinness
A lot of times, I’ll be shooting and think, ‘Maybe I should pass.’
Rajon Rondo
I learned my business in the theater and in television, particularly working with the actors. You can learn much more in the theater than directing a movie, because then you have no time when you are shooting a movie to really work with the actors. You have to learn this craft somewhere else.
Michael Haneke
Even for an area I know well, I prepare a shooting list of subjects I need.
Nigel Dennis
You can’t start a movie by having the attitude that the script is finished, because if you think the script is finished, your movie is finished before the first day of shooting.
Steven Spielberg
Oh, absolutely, it felt more serious than your typical job. One of the things that got us through how difficult the shooting actually was was that we are telling a real story.
John C. Reilly
I’ve seen so many photographers rush to do books the minute they start shooting, but one great thing about photography is that the images don’t go away, so the more I sit with these images, the more I learn which ones have had the most impact.
Lynsey Addario
If you take it as a compliment that you don’t look your age, then you’re really shooting yourself in the foot.
Frances McDormand
Modelling was never a career option for me; it was always a hobby. I was modelling while I was pursuing my B.Tech, so the obvious choice after finishing my studies was to do a job. But while I was modelling and doing TV commercials, I really loved being in front of the camera. I enjoyed the shooting process.
Kriti Sanon
I’m happy riding horses and getting out shooting my gun, things like that.
Randy Travis
On ‘Game of Thrones,’ I remember shooting in Croatia, and by lunchtime we’d see photos of what we’d shot online and think, ‘My God – people really care.’
Alan Taylor
I’ve had mental errors before while not shooting the ball well and while shooting the ball well, and vice versa. So I can’t compound one on top of the other. It’s just a matter of getting out of the groove of shooting bad and just staying more locked in.
J. R. Smith
It’s a miserable life in Hollywood. You’re up at five or six o’clock in the morning to be ready to start shooting at nine.
William Wyler
In a very real sense, all you do when you’re shooting film or television is you shoot a scene, and then you shoot another scene, and then you shoot another scene.
Ben Mendelsohn
I’m cold in summer. I’m the coldest person ever! It’s very ironic I’m never cold in the scripts. Every time I’m shooting, if you don’t see a part of me, there are hot water bottles there.
Carice van Houten
What’s fun about shooting exteriors on the street in Toronto is that there are cable cars.
Sarah Rafferty
There is nothing harder than working 50 pages a day, working 16 hours a day, trying to be good with only shooting rehearsals.
Robert Kazinsky
It’s important for me as an actor to know the entire script before you start shooting, and especially if you’re directing, you don’t want to be struggling with anything.
Tommy Lee Jones
You want to be a writer? Start writing. You want to be a filmmaker? Start shooting stuff on your phone right now.
Matthew McConaughey
Prior to inventing the Geyser Tube toy, dropping a stack of Mentos into a bottle of soda was not always an easy task. The Geyser Tube makes it easy to get a perfect launch every time at heights of 30 feet or more. Tell me… who doesn’t like to see soda shooting 30 feet into the air, all in the name of science?
Steve Spangler
With indies, all they have is their script and it’s very important to them. The characters are better drawn, the stories more precise and the experience greater than with studio films where sometimes they fill in the script as they’re shooting.
Mark Ruffalo
I’d rather be a shooting star than a fading star.
Tyrann Mathieu
Filming in India was one big adventure. For ‘The Cheetah Girls’, we were in Mumbai for two weeks, then Rajasthan for six weeks. Every day after shooting, I would hop into a rickshaw and start exploring the city. I even learned a bit of Hindi. It’s such an amazing place to visit.
Michael Steger
I want to improve my shooting, my free throw shooting, keeping my turnovers down.
Rajon Rondo
Old-school guys, they don’t need to see the doctor, the massage therapist. We’d come in when we was 21; we’d go right to the court and start shooting.
Paul Pierce
When I first started shooting ‘Sharpe,’ back in the early 1990s, I’d kiss my two elder daughters goodbye at the end of August – Evie wasn’t even born then – and I wouldn’t see them again until Christmas. That was tough. They were hard times.
Sean Bean
I had this vision of shooting a great white in the studio with all the edge lights I use for movie posters. I knew that I couldn’t bring the great white to the studio, so I had to bring the studio to the great white.
Michael Muller
Shooting this one was kind of like a two month party, we would literally play music between takes, and other movies that were shooting on our lot would play hookey, come over and hang out and stuff. We had a great time.
Mike Myers
You are traveling and see these people shooting the entire experience of going through a city, and maybe in the back of their minds they sustain the illusion that they will edit it all, but I don’t think that’s it.
Atom Egoyan
I dread shooting with animals. I hope I never get a script with snakes.
Kangana Ran
aut
Some might consider me an unlikely advocate for gun rights because I sustained terrible injuries in a violent shooting. But I’m a patriot, and I believe the right to bear arms is a definitive part of our American heritage.
Gabrielle Giffords
Working on television is much more stressful than working for a movie. The pace of work is relaxed while shooting a movie.
Ashish Sharma
I was shooting for ‘Kahaani’ and ‘GOW’ back to back. I was in a village on work, where a man extended a paper to me. For a minute I thought he wanted another actor’s autograph. I looked back and forth, but there was no one. That was quite an experience.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui
For some of Britain’s most powerful people, hunting and shooting are primordial rights, and any challenge to them is treated as illegitimate. They assert ownership not only of the land but also of the social relationships surrounding it.
George Monbiot
I try to see everything I do. It’s a good learning tool for me. You kind of remember what you were going for when you were shooting it, and then see how it comes across in the context of what comes before and after it.
Jason Bateman
Once I finish shooting, I head straight home and spend time with my family. It’s only when I have to promote my films that I make public appearances.
Mahesh Babu
Once you begin shooting, Bollywood actors get totally involved in their roles, and that gives you an edge in getting what you want out of them.
Prabhu Deva
Shooting a season can be a grind. It can be seven to eight months of work. Once you stop, it slows down any momentum you had.
Cress Williams
I actually carried a Panavision Platinum and a G2 when I was seven months pregnant for a film called ‘Little Birds,’ and the whole movie was handheld. And we were shooting in the desert. That’s a 35-millimeter camera. It’s huge, probably at least 50, 55 pounds, and I did all my own operating.
Reed Morano
It feels like Gangstarr is the purest group in hip-hop. They was shooting videos on the beach in the winter when the water was ice. Razor-blade music.
Fat Joe
We go through, I think, six different drafts of each script. And then my shooting it is roughly, you know, fifteen percent of the total work that gets done on a show. Then it’s all post-production animation after that.
Steve Burns
I was in Deadwood at the time and on hearing of the killing made my way at once to the scene of the shooting and found that my friend had been killed by McCall.
Calamity Jane
When I started out as a 12-13 year old, it was a stupid idea. I remember when I went to try to get coached by Heinz Reinkemeier and my coach Gaby, when I went and met them, India was nowhere in shooting. They said, ‘you want to win a gold at the Olympics? Why don’t you ride an elephant back home?’
Abhinav Bindra
While I was shooting for ‘NH10,’ my hair had to look dirty in the film. To improve the texture… quality of hair, I had to use a lot of conditioner.
Anushka Sharma
I use this method to bring emotion into my performance. I recite my lines in English first, and then switch back to the original lines when shooting begins.
Amy Jackson
While shooting for ‘Kaatru Veliyidai,’ I was living my childhood dream of working with my favourite director. It was surreal and thrilling at the same time.
Aditi Rao Hydari
My day goes by coordinating things like transport for migrant workers, taking government permissions, organizing food among other things. And I feel very happy and satisfied. If I was shooting, I wouldn’t have had all the time in the world. Now, that I have all the time, it is important to give that to the needy.
Sonu Sood
Not long after ‘The Pacific,’ I began shooting the comedy ‘Larry Crowne,’ which was also with Tom Hanks, who also directed and plays the title character.
Rami Malek
When you shoot a musical, you’re shooting to lipsynch tracks, so we had to figure out our choreography and work out what we wanted to do with each number before we did it.
Norman Jewison
When I shot ‘Private Practice,’ Amy Brenneman made a point of really befriending me before we started shooting.
Stephen Amell
When I’m shooting a film, I don’t look at playback. I don’t go and do a scene and then hurry up and watch what I just did. I never look at it so I haven’t seen any of it.
Andre Benjamin
It’s always challenging when you’re shooting a film. Shooting things out of order and keeping continuity on all levels is always for me the most challenging thing.
Amy Adams
I really tried to get comfortable with the notion of shooting digital on ‘Foxcatcher’ and just couldn’t. I shot many tests and experimented with all sorts of techniques to manipulate it into a place that worked for us, but it just didn’t happen.
Bennett Miller
Reflecting back on my career, I was not a talented athlete at all. I had no competitiveness naturally, and was full of anxiety and panic all the time – something that’s certainly not needed for shooting.
Abhinav Bindra
I have a lot of kurtas and Rajasthani-patterned clothes. So I really wanted to do something with an Indian flavour. Shooting the video for ‘Lean On’ was like a dream come true for me.
DJ Snake
I’m shooting a pilot based on my show. It’s a one-camera show. I play myself.
Dane Cook
If I spend 10 days at home, I’ll be dying to get back to the set. I love the thrill of a good dialogue, the buzz of shooting.
Vijay Sethupathi
If you can keep playing tennis when somebody is shooting a gun down the street, that’s concentration.
Serena Williams
I think I can be pretty special. I think I can impact a lot in the NBA, especially with my size and my shooting ability and athleticism and just being a humble person.
Ben McLemore
In the liberal remake of ‘Casablanca,’ the police captain comes upon the scene of the shooting and orders his men to ’round up the usual weapons.’ It’s always the weapon and never the shooter.
Charles Krauthammer
My game is – and I’m not saying I’m slow or anything like that, but my game is mental. My game is shooting; my game is efficiency. If I’m healthy, I feel like I can be effective for a long time.
Chauncey Billups
Shooting this show is pretty intense. You lose your life. But I have no life, so it’s perfect!
David Krumholtz
I need to improve on a lot of different areas. I need to improve on my timing on my shot-blocking, when to go, and when not to go. And there’s definitely always room for improvement on my shooting.
Mohamed Bamba
I just got really into this one girl on Instagram and had her paint little pineapples on my nails during shooting.
Abbi Jacobson
In the South, dove hunts do not draw quietly to a close. Sometimes, at the simplest end, a grill and cooler are hauled to the edge of the field, and the doves’ breasts are grilled – usually swaddled in bacon, maybe with a jalapeno tucked inside – as the hunters tell and retell tales of the day’s shooting.
Jonathan Miles
I learned to not separate writing, shooting, and editing, it’s all sort of one big mess of creative output.
David Lowery
I came across an older picture of me that someone had posted on Facebook, and I totally remember squirming and feeling very fat while I was shooting it.
Christie Brinkley
In 1958, I was shooting a movie in Florida, and I decided to go to Havana, Cuba, to see what it was like.
Peter Falk
It’s cool to be named a Shooting Star and, of course, a big honor. But as to what comes of that, I’m just going to see what comes my way.
Max Riemelt
We do like digital projection. We like shooting on film, finishing digitally, and projection digitally. That’s what I like best. It’s still a movie. It’s not someone’s camcorder and it got projected. That’s mean, I know.
Zack Snyder
Even though photographers are only shooting the outside, beauty is more about who you are as a person – the life you lead – not your facade.
Nigel Barker
I remember when we were shooting ‘Boogie Nights,’ all of my stand-ins were wiping out all the time. I’d practice before I got to the set, but they’d just show up and put on the roller-skates, and they’d be skating over these wires and cables, so they would all fall over. It was totally dangerous.
Heather Graham
There are times where we are shooting a TV show, and it goes very fast. But everybody has this freedom to still be artists.
Carly Chaikin
No matter how much I plan the overall arc of the character, you get there day one on the film and you shooting certain scenes first, and it goes completely different to anything you ever thought of, and then it’s done.
Lin Shaye
A lot of the motivation for doing the ‘Make ‘Em Laugh’ on SNL was because I had just finished shooting ‘Inception,’ where there were zero-gravity scenes and I got into really good shape and was training and did all these stunts. Coming off of that, that instilled me with the confidence to do ‘Make ‘Em Laugh.’
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I’m either shooting nine grams of coke a day or spending two hours at the gym. There’s no middle ground.
Dave Navarro
Shooting movies has changed, and me too – I have changed. And then, every film I do, something in my mind, my soul, changes. My natural change, I change at the same time as the films, I think.
Dario Argento
When I’m shooting, I don’t care who the star is. I have an actor playing a part, and I’m serving the script, not serving anyone’s career.
Alexander Payne
I’d rather grind slow because when it land in my lap and when I get it, it’s going to last longer than just shooting straight to the top and then the plane crashing because I done shot up too fast. I’d rather grind, figure the steps out and stay up there.
Moneybagg Yo
I like working with south Indian directors because they are very disciplined. They visualize their entire story and screenplay in their heads even before they start shooting, which I respect. They finish their work on time. Being a disciplinarian myself, this suits my style.
Akshay Kumar
I feel very comfortable shooting music, and I think you can see that.
Taylor Hackford
Like, shooting with adults is great, but being with kids my own age, it’s different.
Noah Schnapp
Everything you care about is getting the next step right: getting the script right, finding the right actors, shooting it. Then you spend half a year in a dark room editing your film, and you don’t talk to anybody.
Morten Tyldum
Brexit was a fantastic example of a nation shooting itself full in the face.
Hugh Grant
I have spent quite some time in Malaysia, as my mother is from there. And shooting there was a great experience.
Jacqueline Fernandez
Doing ‘YHA’ felt as if I was shooting for a film because it was a love story with a definite ending and good script.
Rithvik Dhanjani
Some directors expect you to do everything; write, be producer, psychiatrist. Some just want you to die in a tragic accident during the shooting so they can get the insurance.
John Malkovich
You’re shooting the quarterback, and he drops back to pass the ball, and you see the ball leave his hand at 10 frames per second. At 7 frames per second, the ball’s already gone.
Scott Kelby
My method of getting a play across the footlights is like a revolver shooting: every line has a bullet in it and comes with an explosion.
George Bernard Shaw
I love writing, and I love postproduction. That’s great, because you start to reassemble the film, and you sit there, and you start to really put the film together, finally. The shooting of it is the most stressful part of the process.
Peter Jackson
If someone suddenly lost their director the day before shooting and wanted me to step in, I’d be willing to. But I’d do brain surgery the same way. I’m always up for something new.
Carter Burwell
I don’t think anyone is pro-school shooting.
Keith Maitland
When I was shooting in Pollachi, I had tried out a lot of local food, most of them I don’t remember the names of.
Hansika Motwani
We’re shooting for the title of hardest-working band in America.
Chester Bennington
A week before shooting, they told me, You don’t have the part, yet. We’re still trying to find a handicapped kid who can act. Either that or we break your legs.
Kieran Culkin
Shooting is a sport which has got us medals at the highest level in the last five to six years right from 2004. It’s a testimony to the talents that we have.
Abhinav Bindra
For me, every photograph is a portrait; the clothes are just a vehicle for what I want to say. You’re photographing a relationship with the person you’re shooting; there’s an exchange, and that’s what that picture is.
Peter Lindbergh
In film, I think that you do have a little more time to invest in the character compared to television, where you are shooting from the hip and making quick choices. It is the speed of things that is the major difference – certainly in my experience.
Henry Ian Cusick
Although shooting action-packed movies is a physically hard job and I repeat movements over and over, those action scenes alone, regardless of rest of the story, gives visual pleasure to viewers. They also give some satisfaction to me as an actor.
Hyun Bin
When I’m shooting, that’s all I do.
Krysten Ritter
When we’re shooting, I’m in producer mode.
Bryan Cogman
There’s a period just before you start a movie when you start thinking, I don’t know what in the world I’m going to do. It’s free-floating anxiety. In my case, though, this is over by lunch the first day of shooting.
Jack Nicholson
I’ve never been jealous of any girl in my life, but while shooting for ‘Remo,’ I was ‘really jealous’ of Sivakarthikeyan. The day I saw him in his pretty nurse look, I knew that he’s going to steal the show.
Keerthy Suresh
When I was shooting for ‘Mahabharat,’ in those one or one and a half years, I didn’t live my life. I was living as Arjun. Not even one single day I was Shaheer. But that paid off very well, as everyone loved my role.
Shaheer Sheikh
I’m a portrait photographer that’s used to shooting celebrities, and I usually need time and all kinds of lights and a studio to set up my shots.
Platon
I don’t do rehearsal. Some directors prefer to do rehearsal – readings before the actual shooting – but I don’t like this process because I think there are certain things that are so spontaneous, and they cannot happen twice.
Wong Kar-wai
I usually shower the night before, lay out all my clothes on the floor, so then I just fall into them, clean my teeth, stumble out the door, get into my car and go wherever it is that we’re shooting. You have breakfast on set.
Lenny Abrahamson
When you go to a shooting competition, you don’t know what medal you’re going to finish with.
Abhinav Bindra
I’m in Atlanta all the time shooting and recording. That’s why I stayed.
Trevor Jackson
For a period of time, I carried cameras with me wherever I went, and then I realized that my interest in photography was turning toward the conceptual. So I wasn’t carrying around cameras shooting stuff, I was developing concepts about what I wanted to shoot. And then I’d get the camera angle and do the job.
Leonard Nimoy
You thrive off everybody on your team. If one guy’s playing well, that makes your job easier. If a guy’s shooting well, it makes your job easier. If a guy’s rebounding well, it makes your job easier.
John Stockton
When you’re shooting super-low-budget – we had 20 days to shoot ‘Diary,’ and a little over $2 – time is money.
George A. Romero
I’m vomiting days before I start shooting a new movie.
Joaquin Phoenix
I love making movies, and being in any that I can be in. I’d like to be in those giant movies, as the fifth or sixth lead, and have three or four killer scenes. You don’t have the responsibility of the entire movie being on you. I like those roles. I’m shooting for the middle.
Bill Burr
We had an amazing experience shooting the first season of ‘Leverage’ with such a talented cast and crew and with the full support of TNT behind us.
Dean Devlin
Shooting a movie isn’t good for a sleep disorder.
Mike Birbiglia
I really missed what I’d done on Rogers Cable, which was shooting and editing all my own stuff.
Tom Green
When you’re shooting a film, you really don’t get to be a dad, and you don’t really get to be a husband. You don’t really exist at all. But I do drag my family with me on location whenever I can.
Eric Bana
To shoot a gun proficiently, including speed shooting, is much less of a skill than typing.
Bernhard Goetz
All teams need good shooters. You can never have enough shooting.
Devin Booker
Well, my life hasn’t really changed… I’ve been homeschooled for a long time. So that helped a lot because of shooting and stuff. But, I have had friends who I’ve been friends with for years and years and they are my true friends, you know?
Willow Shields
While actors play with guns for make-believe, the guns themselves are by no means make-believe; they’re real. Even when the actor is using blanks, there are all kinds of safety protocols to follow when shooting one at someone. Pulling the trigger is the easy part.
Trieste Kelly Dunn
I’m either shooting for films or commercials, attending events, or meeting people, so on and so forth.
Rakul Preet Singh
Direction is something that interests me. Even while shooting, I always have conversations with the director to get a better understanding of shooting technicalities.
Ashish Sharma
I’m always thinking, ‘What next,’ even while working on one play or shooting for a film.
Lillete Dubey
When you’re doing a film, it’s your film and it’s, you know, your blood and – is in it along with everybody else’s, and it’s the greatest picture ever made when you’re shooting it. It’s only after the critics and then the public say you were wrong that you realize that you were wrong.
Richard D. Zanuck
I had written ‘Two Lovers’ before we started shooting ‘We Own the Night.’
James Gray
I’m not anti-fox hunting because, to me, shooting foxes is even worse and the results are horrendous.
Roger Daltrey
We are not really privy to all that crazy stuff that goes on in the show. I go to work, eat, and talk about food. The wild things happen when we aren’t around. I expected Top Chef to last three or four seasons and we are now shooting season ten.
Tom Colicchio
‘Under the Skin’ is handsome, in a dour way, but inert – a cunning experiment that died in the shooting or on the editing table. You’ll want to get the DVD, though, and not just for its study of Scarlett. Odds are that the Making-Of documentary will be far stranger and more fascinating than the movie that was made.
Richard Corliss
I want to explore a new place each year, and it can be within India. When I was shooting for ‘Mohenjo Daro’, I couldn’t travel out of the country for two years. But it gave me an opportunity to explore new places within India. I’m sure there are so many places to explore in India, and I would love to go there.
Pooja Hegde
Don’t worry about the war. It’s all over but the shooting.
Samuel Goldwyn
I’m a sportsman. You know, I go out clay shooting and put three shells in.
Joe Manchin
The gigantic tension before the shooting of an arrow, and the total relaxation seconds later, is my way of connecting to the universe.
Paulo Coelho
I really like shooting in real locations.
Aishwarya Rajesh
When I’m not shooting, I go to school every day. When I am shooting, I have tutors on set helping me.
Madison Pettis
I’ve made ‘The Pilgrimage’ – where I actually had to speak Gaelic – and I was shooting in Belfast as well.
Tom Holland
Sight gags had to be planned; they required timing and mechanics. Occasionally, spontaneity would arise in the shooting of the scenes.
Stan Laurel
It’s beautiful, shooting in Ireland. It’s an amazing country.
Travis Fimmel
Whether it was the 9/11 attacks, Paris shooting, or the attack on the Taj, people across the world mourn the collective loss.
Adnan Sami
The people run the country. So if people didn’t want you shooting in their neighborhood, there’s no authority that can tell them they have to. That’s why it’s called the People’s Republic of China.
James Lassiter
I appeared in Pankaj Udhas’ ‘Ahista’ video purely on instinct. I had turned down everything that had come my way till then. After I heard the storyline and the fact that were shooting in Sydney, I agreed. When the song went on air, I was still in Sydney.
Sameera Reddy
It’s all about having fun and shooting something that you like. Where it goes afterwards is up to the movie gods.
Devon Bostick
I fought in Korea, front line. I knew who the enemy were. The enemy were the people who were firing at me. And shooting at me.
Douglas Wilder
A lot of my friends growing up were hunters, but I spent all my time on the ice hurting actual humans playing hockey. I never had the chance to run through the woods and shoot at a moose or deer. I was shooting pucks at goaltender’s heads.
Kevin Durand
Well, there are three different processes of making a film, of course. They’re sort of re-written three times. You write it to start with, and then you shoot it and you re-write it while shooting and you sort of re-write it as you edit.
Stephen Daldry
We didn’t play any Joy Division songs for 10 years after the start of New Order, which was a very honourable thing to do even if it meant shooting ourselves in the foot.
Bernard Sumner
I don’t like staying in hotels. I like to be in my own bed. San Diego as a city is really awesome. The only hard part of it for me is that I’m away from my family and my house. But as far as shooting down there, we get amazing locations, and the crew is really, really stellar down there. They are really fun.
Kristen Bell
Unfortunately, the public might not know that we get a script usually two days before shooting. So sometimes I’m shooting an episode and don’t even know how it’s going to end because I haven’t read that yet.
Fisher Stevens
There are lots of reasons for that gap between men’s and women’s wages but to me, the big one is the work-family issue. Trying to juggle children and a job is tough under any circumstances, but especially if you’re shooting for the kind of career that involves long hours at work and being on call 24-7.
Gail Collins
When I travel in Tamil Nadu for shooting, I make it a point to eat at roadside eateries and drink tea/coffee at a tea stall.
Aishwarya Rajesh
Mostly, when you are shooting for action or intimate scenes, and you need to hold them, it takes away the mood if you both are not in sync. I have faced such situations and I think having a good bond with your co-stars only adds value to the scene.
Abhinav Shukla
Shooting is a skill you can develop. It’s repetition and confidence.
Chris Mullin
The world will always need revolution. That doesn’t mean shooting and violence. A revolution is when you change your thinking. Confucianism and Christianity were both revolutionary.
Jose Mujica
I enjoy shooting. Around where I live, it’s something you do for entertainment once in a while, you go out and shoot targets.
Bonnie Jo Campbell
We shot in a place called Asheville, which is like beautiful, beautiful forests. And then part of it we shot all the reaping stuff, which was just crazy – because the reaping in the book and in the script is such an emotional thing for everyone. It really did feel like that when we were shooting it.
Liam Hemsworth
I love shooting French films because I don’t have to stick with being sophisticated or stuck-up.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Many witnesses to the shooting of Michael Brown made statements inconsistent with other statements they made and also conflicted with the physical evidence. Some were completely refuted by the physical evidence.
Robert P. McCulloch
The key measurement will not be how many people are watching the Univision network. But, believe me, I still think we are going to grow and are shooting for No. 1, and that spot is certainly on our radar. But engagement will be the focus and the main measure.
Randy Falco
While shooting for ‘Kodi’ at Pollachi, I got this new idea for ‘VIP 2’.
Dhanush
I felt from time to time that shooting live music is the most purely cinematic thing you can do. Ideally, the cinema is becoming one with the music. There is little artifice involved. There’s no acting. I love it.
Jonathan Demme
Best thing about shooting in Atlanta at night is that it’s not as hot as it is during the day.
Tom Holland
On my left the shooting had the sharp explosion of the infantry artillery, on my right could be heard the sporadic cannon shots thundering from the front, and up above the sky was clear and the sun bright.
Max Beckmann
If you lived through the shooting of Jaws, you can live through anything.
Sam Mendes
Of course, with the increasing number of aeroplanes one gains increased opportunities for shooting down one’s enemies, but at the same time, the possibility of being shot down one’s self increases.
Manfred von Richthofen
A scene, a day of shooting, can often make you feel kind of stupid and inept because your one job is to anticipate and react and know what to go for.
Ron Howard
Shooting against greenscreen… my choice of filming is, like, I’d rather shoot on location than shoot on a set, and I’d rather shoot on a set than shoot against greenscreen. You start stripping away the layers of reality, and it becomes a lot less fun to actually film.
Neil Marshall
We would get 20 different angles and then cut them all together. That’s what I called it at the time – the ‘cubistic’ treatment of shooting football. It was the same thing Picasso did except we did it with a football play. It’s taking a single image and looking at it from multiple perspectives.
Steve Sabol
To bring a child into the world that you cannot feed, clothe, house, and educate is the moral equivalent, in my opinion, of a drive-by shooting.
Larry Elder
My Soul to Keep is the ultimate love story with a black man and a black woman. I call it the ultimate love story. It’s about an immortal. We’re shooting for this Fall and that’s been a six year development right there.
Blair Underwood
I wanted to make sure that the environment of the shooting itself was not that controlled, and the way to go about that course was to work with as small a crew as possible.
Atom Egoyan
When I was auditioning, I didn’t know it was ‘Daredevil.’ Everything was secret. They’re secret agents. They wouldn’t give you any clues. I was a big fan of the show, and I think it helped me, once I got the part, to really understand the world that they live in. It helped me during shooting.
Elodie Yung
I really enjoyed shooting in Ireland. The people are so lovely. I hope I don’t offend anyone in saying this, but the nature reminded me of Americans: everyone was warm and open and easy to talk to. And Ireland is so beautiful and lusciously green.
Maya Hawke
When you’re shooting at 9 A.M. at a club, you have to use all of your acting skills.
Gillian Jacobs
The more I learn and grow, the more I feel fulfilled, and even if I’m shooting a commercial for a car or a computer, I try to deliver a filmmaker’s point of view where I can learn from the experience. Then I really enjoy it.
Taylor Steele
When I was in Mumbai for the promotion of ‘Makkhi,’ I met Ajay Devgn, Kajol, and Shah Rukh Khan, and I wanted to meet Aamir Khan. He was shooting out of India. I also met my favourite director, Raju Hirani. All of them showered praises on ‘Makkhi.’
S. S. Rajamouli
Kurt Russell… he is a bloody legend. I have idolised him, and to chill with him on the sets while shooting was an incredible experience.
Ali Fazal
Moments of crisis, like the shooting in Newtown, tend to produce brief spikes of popular interest in gun control. My research on media attention suggests these spikes are extremely short-lived, and that they may be decreasing in intensity.
Ethan Zuckerman
My two great loves when I’m shooting are working with great actors and composing images.
Tom Hooper
I am a tomboy and I love being with the boys and shooting guns and stuff.
Laurie Holden
It’s a bit like school camp, shooting a film. Everyone’s on heat. It’s a strange energy. It’s full of adrenalin. I funnel my excess energy in funny little ways. I do a lot of dancing in my trailer. I love music.
Alice Englert
Once you’re on the set and shooting, it’s all just cinema. You have actors and cameras.
Philippe Falardeau
I’ve been shooting the ball and running a little bit. It’s just going out here now and forgetting that I’ve been out and try to get back in and make sure I know what’s going on out there on the floor and that we’re just not lost as a team.
Antonio Davis
When you are shooting traditional motion capture, it’s a big footprint on set. There are, like, 16 cameras that are needed and constraints over the lighting.
John Knoll
If I go home from a day of shooting, and I haven’t at some point felt the magic, I’m really frustrated.
Susanne Bier
I am in Toronto, shooting a movie for NBC.
Paula Abdul
I’ve been in enough movies to know that when you’re on the set and you start shooting, you’re looking at playback and you get a sense of what it’s going to be like.
Mark Wahlberg
When you were a stock player, you worked on anything that was shooting on the lot in any capacity.
Barbara Hale
I think everyone is just expanding, with the centers shooting 3s. I think that just opens the floor up a lot more. A lot more shots are going up, a lot more freedom of movement. It makes it more of an exciting game.
Kyle Lowry
I was actually shooting ‘Warm Bodies’ on the day that ’50/50′ came out, which I don’t recommend to other filmmakers because I was sort of a wreck. Actually, it was good for me, because I had work to do, so I couldn’t obsess all day and be checking how ’50/50′ was doing!
Jonathan Levine
I’m currently shooting ‘Ava’s Possessions,’ which is a really fun movie about a woman who gets possessed by a demon. I call it ‘Memento’ meets ‘The Exorcist.’
Alysia Reiner
Shooting in Brooklyn is like opening a time capsule. Nothing has changed. Everything looks like it did in the eighties.
Freddie Prinze, Jr.
You don’t start shooting rockets at Israel and expect that we’ll just sit back supinely and die.
Naftali Bennett
I’ve hidden behind the camera my whole life because I much, much, much prefer shooting. Being behind the camera is my safe space, and it’s my creative space, too.
Jimmy Chin
There was certain points shooting ‘Spring Breakers’ where I wasn’t uncomfortable at all, and that let me be free. It allowed me to play with what I love, so that’s what I wanted to do with my music.
Selena Gomez
Shooting of course has certain challenges, especially in terms of safety aspects to be sorted and venues are far away from the scene of action.
Abhinav Bindra
Kendall is really satisfied on her role in ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians.’ With her modeling career, she’s so busy. If she’s not walking a runway, she’s shooting a campaign or traveling around the world with her fashion obligations. She’s a pretty busy little girl.
Kris Jenner
Performing in front of the camera is a different thing, and shooting a whole film is another.
Nora Fatehi
Everybody is going to have tough shooting nights. It’s natural.
Kyle Kuzma
I’m a crack shot and I’ve won medals for shooting. But I don’t think I could shoot a person.
Gene Vincent
One of the great things about shooting in Los Angeles is you have access to all these great performers. We love working with ensembles, and that process of getting a great group of people together and setting them in motion.
Valerie Faris
I discovered the 7th art at home when I was kid, through Charlie Chaplin’s movies and those of my father who shot documentaries. He was my biggest influence. So I took his camera and started shooting.
Lasse Hallstrom
The beauty of where I’m from – this small little town called Wallburg, North Carolina – I didn’t have a TV; I was out playing ball with my dad, shooting clay pigeons.
Jill Wagner
After graduating, I was shooting as well as working as a key grip, and I often found myself the only female out of the whole crew, except for producers and the occasional AC.
Reed Morano
I loved shooting ‘iGo to Japan’ because we got to be outside a lot, and our call times were really late because we had so many night scenes. It was pouring rain, so the cast would huddle together in between takes and drink hot chocolate. Shooting that episode was such a great bonding experience.
Jennette McCurdy
I’m starting to develop my practice, learning how to come home after a really long day of shooting and letting myself breathe. I’m drawing and painting and listening to my music and keeping those things separate.
Hunter Schafer
Rarely ever see or meet the writer during shooting.
Tom Skerritt
Avoid all needle drugs, the only dope worth shooting is Richard Nixon.
Abbie Hoffman
A lot of male cinematographers stick a pillow to their stomachs so they have somewhere to rest their elbows while shooting.
Reed Morano
When a documentary filmmaker, working in the style that I do, suggests that there has been a shooting ratio of 40 hours to every one hour of finished film, that doesn’t mean that the other 39 are bad.
Ken Burns
TV is so different from the movies. It takes a lot of stamina because you work such long hours. It is really challenging. You are learning the next day’s lines while you are shooting today’s scenes. I found courage I never realised I had. I hope to do more.
Sharon Stone
Once I finish shooting a film, I usually sit on it to see how we can make it better.
Akkineni Nagarjuna
When you’re shooting a feature that costs $200,000 a day with a crew of 250, you don’t want accidents; you want to know exactly what’s going to happen. But with a documentary, you don’t, so you have to be sensitive to accidents because that is where the gold is.
Sydney Pollack
I have a million funny ideas for sketches, but I don’t want to spend tens of thousands of dollars shooting them.
Gavin McInnes
‘Longmire’ is an incredibly hard shooting schedule because the locations are usually an hour away every morning, and I come home every weekend. I fly back to L.A. for about 26 hours a weekend, just to touch base back at home. It’s a lot of work. It’s four really intense months.
Katee Sackhoff
I love David Fincher – even though it was just two scenes, I loved the way we worked and could tell by the way he was shooting it that this was going to be an affective movie to say the least.
Richard Schiff
While shooting ‘Selma,’ I would train on my off time with the assistant men’s track and field coach at Georgia Tech.
Stephan James
The process of shooting – of choosing shots – is intuitive for me, and I just feel my way towards what seems right.
Lenny Abrahamson
Shooting in Hong Kong, you can do whatever you want, even change the script every day. In Hollywood, you have to have a lot of meetings.
Andrew Lau
It’s going to sound ridiculous, but knowing how to pose, how to maintain a level of engagement and variation for a day of shooting, is actually a skill.
Cameron Russell
I love shooting, when the character is interesting and the script is interesting, but the research beforehand is really fun. The whole process makes me anxious and restless, and I have trouble sleeping, just trying to figure out the character.
Matt Damon
Of course there’s pressure, and it’s still there with every book. Each one is harder to write than the last, basically because you’re always trying to write a better book. You won’t always succeed, of course, but that has to be what you’re shooting for.
Mark Billingham
You can’t fix a bad script after you start shooting. The problems on the page only get bigger as they move to the big screen.
Howard Hawks
In Chicago, you know you got beef with everybody. In Atlanta, you’re chilling, but you don’t get too comfortable. Like, if I go to the store, it’s not like anybody’s gonna come out shooting at me.
King Von
Well, I mean, Russia was responsible for shooting down MH17. Russia was responsible for invading Ukraine. Russia is responsible for taking away the chemical weapons in Syria that they didn’t take away. Russia was responsible for having honest athletes in the Olympics when they did the whole doping program.
Bill Browder
I hadn’t read comics really before coming in to shooting the original ‘Thor.’ During that and beforehand, I read stacks and got my head around it all. We reference, especially when we were putting the script together before we started shooting, other stories.
Chris Hemsworth
I’ve always believed the greater danger is not aiming too high, but too low, settling for a bogey rather than shooting for an eagle.
Peter Scott
Even if you’re doing a film, you’re in the news while the shooting is on and during promotions. But once it’s over, the limelight fades away, and you wait for something better to come your way.
Karishma Tanna
I hope I’m still shooting when I’m 80.
Conrad Hall
‘Awake’ was just the most beautiful show. For most of the shooting, we didn’t know if they were going to air. You never knew. We were just trying to make it the best it could.
Daniela Bobadilla
When you are shooting action, there is a satisfying thing because your objectives are very clear.
Clive Owen
Sometimes I’ve been more emotionally disturbed by the experience of shooting a comedy than a drama. After ‘We’re the Millers’, I think playing this battered loser who’s confidence was at zero for 90 percent of the movie, I did genuinely feel that way.
Will Poulter
Shooting a television show can be very difficult and at times can really wear on you. If you keep reminding yourself that it is a job and you show up together as a team and as a whole, you can prevail.
David Boreanaz
It was comical because you’re at a firing range, all these people are so seriously shooting their little guns.
Ryan Reynolds
The whole idea that the rescue was staged or the soldiers were shooting blanks, that’s just obvious stuff. Why would you do that in the middle of a war? It’s just crazy.
Jessica Lynch
There are a lot more shots coming at the net and guys are just shooting it at the net because they have more time and pucks are going in off legs and feet and shoulders and heads, so you might have to play out a little further on the shot and hope it hits you.
Ed Belfour
It’s funny, I started by making fake American movies, ‘The Transporter’ and stuff like that. I was shooting in France, but everything was in English. But then afterwards, I was looking at real French movies like the Jacques Audiard movies.
Louis Leterrier
In order to make Alma innocent and open, I had to forget that I’m stressed as an actress because I’m making a film with Paul Thomas Anderson. I had to let go of everything and hold onto the text. The language was like a rope I could cling onto and make my way blindfolded through the shooting.
Vicky Krieps
I recently had a few days off while shooting a movie in Budapest, so I took a cab from the set to the airport, looked at the departure board, and decided where I wanted to go right then and there. I spent four days in Rome and didn’t tell anyone I was going.
Cory Monteith
I mean, Scorsese’s a genius, and that’s one way of shooting.
Stanley Tucci
Some of my most special shooting experiences have been at weekends.
Tom Hooper
During the shooting of ‘Manthan,’ I lived in the hut, learnt to make cow dung cakes and milk a buffalo. I would carry the buckets and serve the milk to the unit to get the physicality of the character.
Naseeruddin Shah
If you throw obstacles at the relationship with Mexico, you would be shooting yourself in the foot.
Ildefonso Guajardo Villarreal
I feel really lucky to have had ‘War and Peace’ as my first big telly job. I was playing this incredible character, and we were shooting in Catherine the Great’s palace near St. Petersburg in the winter, when the river was frozen. It was a dream. I still can’t believe it. I wanted to soak up every last minute.
Jessie Buckley
I think people ultimately reveal themselves to everybody. I think that’s the case with Sarah Palin’s conduct, particularly after the Tucson shooting, I think she’s sort of digging herself into a hole. I hope – I really hope.
Patti Davis
I did all my directing when I wrote the screenplay. It was probably harder for a regular director. He probably had to read the script the night before shooting started.
Preston Sturges
Shooting the ball is a part of the game. Everybody can shoot in their own way. Not everybody can make. But everybody can shoot.
Stephen Curry
It’s a different thing shooting for 10 weeks in India as opposed to on a set on stage pretending you’re in India.
Chris Kattan
Each film is different. Time Code was very quick – a matter of months. Miss Julie has been on my shelf as a script for some seven or eight years. But then the shooting process was very quick – 16 days.
Mike Figgis
I am protecting my personal life because for me, that’s my sanctity. When I am done with shooting and home, that’s my reality check.
Varun Dhawan
In the NBA, there is a guy guarding you, and you really have to try shooting over him.
Amar’e Stoudemire
With ‘Eagle of the Ninth,’ every shot was extremely planned and organized. The director was like, ‘Do this!’ And I say, ‘How was it?’ and he says, ‘Good.’ It was very odd. I would never know where he was headed, or even if he was shooting me at a close-up or from a distance.
Tahar Rahim
We were doing it under the most extraordinary circumstances, but the first out of the tent in the morning would be David Lean. He said to me on the very first day of shooting, Pete, this is the beginning of a great adventure.
Peter O’Toole
When the ravens leave the Tower, England shall fall, they say. We want to be there shooting the ravens.
Ian Brown
I tend to detach myself from movies once I’m done shooting them, because after that, it’s in the hands of God. And it doesn’t help if I panic.
Shruti Haasan
Sport is one part of life. There are so many things to life but I’ve done nothing. I’ve really done nothing else but focused on shooting.
Abhinav Bindra
I have a husband and two kids, and they’re usually around when I’m shooting, then I go home. We have dinner, and that’s what I’m dealing with when I go home.
Julianne Moore
You know, life is long. My shooting career is long.
Matt Emmons
Every industry has standards. For example, the motion picture camera, there are 2 or 3 film formats with a number of brackets and number of speed, a shooting speed that is standard. If we didn’t have that, then some motion pictures will play back too slowly, and people would talk very slowly, and it will be bizarre.
Jeffrey Zeldman
My first audition happened to be for ‘Kindergarten Cop,’ and I took that role. I was only starting to learn English at that point. Spanish is my first language, so they made me a speaking character in the movie. I didn’t really know I was shooting a movie. I was just having a lot of fun with 30 kids my own age.
Odette Annable
You know, episodic TV directing is a very long and arduous job. You have very short schedules, short short shooting days, and you have to get lot of pages done.
Katey Sagal
If people are shooting at you, it’s human nature to be afraid. I was afraid. I’ll be quite blunt about that.
Rodney Frelinghuysen
Because I’m shooting ‘The New Normal’ and ‘Real Housewives of Atlanta’ at the same time, so my schedule is double. I leave one show and go and shoot the other. The cameras are with me for, like, every day of my life. So I’m extremely tired.
NeNe Leakes
From a production point of view, I still have one foot firmly planted in the independent film world, and much of the shooting on ‘Jumper’ was done ‘Swingers’-style because that was the only way we could afford to do it.
Doug Liman
There are some problems, and maybe these huge magazines, even, for someone who says, ‘Look, I just use an AR-15 for target practice,’ but do you really need to be standing there shooting at a silhouette a shot a second or even quicker with that kind of weapon? For what purpose?
Phil Gingrey
Fencing and shooting kind of came naturally. From the start, I knew that I had it in me.
Elodie Clouvel
If you wait until the right time to have a child you’ll die childless, and I think film making is very much the same thing. You just have to take the plunge and just start shooting something even if it’s bad.
James Cameron
The submarine genre is a category with all its own rules. But shooting on water is famously tough.
Kevin Macdonald
I’ve got a pretty wide range of stuff that I’m interested in in life. But producing… it gives me a lot more time at home to spend with my family as opposed to being away on location shooting nights for months at a time.
Mark Wahlberg
In 1975, I went to the Dominican Republic for eight months during the shooting of a film based on my novel ‘Captain Pantoja and the Special Service.’ It was during this period I heard and read about Trujillo.
Mario Vargas Llosa
Shooting a film is like a kismet quest. You have thirty days and you need magic to happen. So that’s why I wear suits. I’m praying to the gods, and I’m doing everything I can to respect the powers of the world.
Mike Mills
First, the media blames us stars for not doing more films. But when we are shooting, you want us to take a break. Not fair!
Prabhas
I only wish the sport of shooting was more reachable and there were training centers all over the country where youngsters could go and try shooting.
Abhinav Bindra
But I like schlocky violent movies, but I’m for strict gun control. But then there was a time I was at a laser tag place, and I had such a good time hiding in a corner shooting at people. In other words, I’m your basic confused human when it comes to violence.
Robert Sapolsky
I went across the fields to avoid the straight highways, along the firing lines where people were shooting at a small wooded hill, which is now covered with wooden crosses and lines of graves instead of spring flowers.
Max Beckmann
Music is very helpful, not just for the actors, but the whole crew and myself. It gives you the tone of the scene. Everyone is focused on the tone of the scene when we are shooting, and we are having an emotional reaction to the music immediately.
Juan Antonio Bayona
I like shooting in New York because I have such a connection to the city. I have so many memories there.
Noah Baumbach
I always prefer shooting on locations, because when I’m at home, it’s harder to sort of get lost in the world of whatever you’re making.
Max Minghella
I’ll miss the comments from the people on the street who love the show and who have felt its impact on the culture. I won’t miss the shooting schedule, though!
Dennis Franz
Hits and flops will come and go. But what stays with you is the experience you had while shooting a film. I am happy learning something new each time.
Sonakshi Sinha
I’m kind of lucky that we’ve finished shooting ‘Cougar Town,’ so I’m able to kind of just enjoy my pregnancy and be a stay-at-home mom and go to prenatal Pilates and do all that fun stuff that, if I were working, would be almost impossible to do.
Busy Philipps
I never dreamed that shooting a film would be so hard. There was less regulation then of child actors’ hours. Even the concept of acting confused me.
Tatum O’Neal
You know, I’ve carried a weapon for 10 years, never shot anybody, never robbed anybody. It has saved my life twice, but I know they’re not toys. I practice with firearms, I enjoy shooting, it’s a hobby of mine and I have a healthy respect for them.
Luke Scott
That’s the great part about television: It’s alive, and it changes and evolves with the way the characters evolve. Stuff that happens to you in your life when you’re shooting a TV show, you have to be careful, because it might end up in the show.
Thomas Jane
I love shooting movies. I love the shots. That’s the thing that I love doing, and I’ve just never been able to do it.
James Gunn
I think I’m most excited about traveling and shooting and spending time in L.A. I have a great talent agency there and, you know, working with my acting coach and really putting in the time and effort to transition into the acting.
Charlotte McKinney
I have to say, when you make a movie, you really have no idea how it’s going to turn out as an actor. The important bit for an actor is the actual shooting of it because the minute the shoot ends, it’s got nothing to do with you anymore.
Mark Strong
Paul is Starsky, and I met him before shooting. He was very kind and encouraged us to go with what we wanted to do. It was very sweet to see them back with the car after 25 years.
Ben Stiller
I think one thing that makes me delay projects more than other people is, I see this silver lining in a turn-down. Maybe if I just wrote a script and then pounded my head against all the doors, I would be shooting more films.
Whit Stillman
Every time I’m shooting a movie I want to kill myself. Because I don’t see the light in the end of the tunnel.
Emir Kusturica
When I get a new script, I write a record of how many costume and make-up changes I have. I cross-check them against the shooting schedule and then consult with the hair and make-up designers.
Gina Bellman
I played golf for 25 years before I made a hole-in-one of any kind. I was on the tour for years before it finally happened. Eventually I made 23, but boy, that first one was a long time coming. It was the price I paid for not shooting at every flag.
Billy Casper
Shooting at night in Los Angeles is amazing. The city shuts down at 10 P.M. every night, and a whole different cast of characters comes out.
Dan Gilroy
Let me just keep shooting and see if it keeps going in.
Joe Ingles
I like having the ball in my hands and being able to make plays, but I think my shooting is an asset, too.
Seth Curry
I have learnt sketching, drawing, singing, dancing, rifle shooting, paragliding.
Divyanka Tripathi
Four months after we finished shooting, I’d been in New Orleans shooting another movie and my agent and I were having a bite to eat – actually in London – and he’s sitting there and goes, ‘Wow, I just can’t believe how ripped you are.’
Ryan Reynolds
Lighting practically whenever I can when shooting period really helps with authenticity.
Rachel Morrison
Matthew Wiener on ‘Mad Men’ writes the entire series before they start shooting, and if you have that, then what you can do with character and story is not at all unlike what you can do in a novel.
Salman Rushdie
I know many filmmakers, and shooting in IMAX is challenging. Filmmakers love the vividness and power of those big images.
Nina Jacobson
I can do a lot more by shooting from outside, score inside, penetrate, and make opportunities for others.
Chauncey Billups
I went through a divorce right as we were starting the show. My divorce became final right after we started shooting the first year, and during that time I was in such a low place.
Lee Tergesen
One thing I learnt was that you don’t have to spend all day shooting: you can get it done in half an hour if you’re that talented as a cameraman.
Aneurin Barnard
When I make a movie, I don’t break it down and analyze it. I could but it would get in the way of doing a job – on instinct based on all the research we did going in. you want to trust yourself and your director and your acting partners in the circumstances you’re shooting. I don’t like to have any kind of overview.
Viggo Mortensen
I don’t read ‘genre’ fiction if that means novels with lots of killing and shooting. Even Cormac McCarthy’s ‘No Country for Old Men’ seemed pretty childish in that regard.
Geoff Dyer
When I went to the University of Texas, my first day of freshman year in 1994, I took a student tour, and I asked about the tower shooting. I was told, ‘We’re really not supposed to talk about that.’ That was the official stance from the university.
Keith Maitland
Bob Weir calls me a saint, but I’m ‘Saint Misbehavin’.’ They’re making a documentary about my life, and that’s the current shooting title. I can roll with that, but otherwise the s-word makes me really paranoid.
Wavy Gravy
If you’re doing movies on a set… many times, I’ve shot the end of a movie in the first week of shooting. Because of locations or budgets or actors’ availability.
Liam Cunningham
I think when science fiction is at its worst, it’s just spaceships flying around shooting at each other. There has to be a lot more going on than that… science fiction is about exploring new worlds and new ideas, not about ray guns and action, necessarily.
Jeff Lemire
‘New Girl’ was a wonderful experience, but for seven years, we were shooting single-cam that is not handheld, that is traditionally shot, and they’re asking you to improv, and you’re on location. It’s a real grind.
Max Greenfield
Having worked with Sarah Paulson on ‘American Horror Story: Hotel’ and seeing the lengths she goes to when shooting a scene, you go, ‘Oh, so that’s what this is going to be like.’
Max Greenfield
I learn my lines in a few different ways. A lot of my dialogue sticks with me in a general sort of way when I read the entire script for the first or second time. Then, when I get the shooting schedule, I have a better idea of what scenes are shooting when. I then will focus on those that are coming up first.
Candice Patton
The lowest budget U.S. films are ten times times better than shooting in Tibet.
Joan Chen
There’s nothing wrong with shooting for the stars.
Justin Timberlake
I think video games and that stuff should be as violent as possible, but age-appropriate. It should be realistic. When it’s not realistic you run into kids running around shooting people and not realizing the consequences.
Darren Aronofsky
I’m really enjoying being able to do these unhinged comedies and emotional dramas alike. I’m having a lovely time. After shooting a role that requires months of crying, it’s quite nice to be able to play something very different.
Olivia Colman
Perhaps the most difficult thing is shooting scenes set 6,000 feet up in the mountains of Mexico.
Bruce Beresford
Even the Australians don’t know how beautiful their own country is. Particularly where we were shooting ‘The Straits.’ Most of my stuff was done on an aboriginal settlement on the south shore, opposite Cairns, which I believe was the site where the last person was eaten in Australia.
Brian Cox
When you’re shooting a TV show, sometimes it’s more about, like, the blocking: it’s usually – it’s really fast. ‘Walk here, walk here, walk and talk here.’
David Castaneda
