To unlock the ‘This is the Moment’ trophy, your best bet is to find the Taken Wolf enemies and dodge them as they pounce at you.

They can be found in various locations, but most notably relatively early on in Cauldron Lake and near the Watery Trailer Park. Some of them even appear after completing a particular Nursery Rhyme puzzle in the game.

While it can be done on any enemy, often I found that when I was dodging humanoid enemies it would be difficult to get precise timing, but the pouncing of the wolves offered me enough time and hitbox grace to dodge out of the way in time.

That’s everything you need to unlock the ‘This is the Moment’ trophy in Alan Wake 2. If you’re on the lookout for even more achievements in the game, be sure to check out how to beat Nightingale in Alan Wake 2 so you can get your hands on another.
