Going into a shoot not fully knowing what I want to do - that excitement, that thing that happens, is just so powerful and makes such great pictures.

You have twenty-one days to shoot a whole movie and sometimes you go into that thinking 'ugh, this could potentially be really, really difficult' and it turns out to be the most incredible experience.

It's a fun thing to do: Go to a shooting range with a buddy, knock off a few rounds, release stress.

So, I took lessons, and I love to shoot now. It's a lot of fun.

I do a lot of decision making before each shoot. It's a luxury to be able to choose what you do.

There are things that I will always shoot, but now that the modeling and acting worlds are becoming very close, you can do a little bit of one and more of the other.

In the time between when you first read a script and are offered the role and the time when you begin to shoot, I really love putting in the time and work on that and getting a solid backstory to a character and researching all that I can about what that person does for a vocation or their upbringing or where they're from.

The main thing is to keep it simple, keep it real, be honest and pull no stunts. You can't forget where you started and came from.

On a film, you do your own work, you come together and meet on set, and then you shoot. It's great.
