The Practice is a layered methodology designed to help actors prepare for the screen in a way that is human, logical, and emotionally activated. Developed by Tania Nolan, it moves beyond performance technique—into lived, truthful experience. Each layer of the practice serves a specific purpose in helping you enter, understand, and experience the reality of any world you step into.
The Framework
The Practice
The Experiential™ – An empowered first read that lifts the world off the page
The Detective Read™ – Investigate, research, and activate the world
The Imprint Method™ – a practical, first-person approach to learning the choreography of the conversation.
Chatting Out™ – Talk yourself into the life and point of view
The Experiential™
An empowered first read that lifts the world off the page.
The first time you speak the material aloud—either a brief or a conversation—utilising translation and processing it within the space around you. It is not a read. It’s a lived encounter, built on logic, reason, and perception.
The Detective Read™
Discover the clues, define your perspective.
A guided investigative process using a three-column to-do list:
This layer helps you build the imaginary world with depth, logic, and emotional clarity.
The Imprint Method™
Learn the choreography of the conversation in a way that serves you.
This is your method for learning the conversation without treating it as lines. The Imprint Method™ helps you internalise the material so that when the conversation unfolds in the take or on stage, it becomes something you impulsively want to say or do in the moment—not something you've memorised.
Chatting Out™
A practical tool for talking yourself into the life —activating your desires, logic, experiences, and emotional stakes. Until it lives in you—before anyone else sees it.
