In ep 125 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, American voice actor Laura Doman joins Sam and Mark from Atlanta to talk about lingerie, the loss of a family pet and how bringing warm and fuzzy sometimes isn't easy because the script wording is hard and corporate. We have fun with Vikings, Egyptologists and witness a caterpillar (or could it be a worm) breaking out of her chrysalis.
Our VO question this week is all about the skills you use in acting that can make a client's life so much easier.

Script 1
While most fashion brands outsource photoshoots to agencies and hire studios by the hour, we do things very differently at Frill Seeker. Apart from manufacturing, everything happens right here at our HQ in the heart of Oxford, UK—from designing and sampling to picking and packing your orders. And tucked away at the top of our three-story building is a little creative sanctuary: our in-house photographic studio.
Having our own studio means we’re able to punch well above our weight when it comes to imagery. It gives us the freedom to shoot whenever inspiration strikes, without worrying about rental fees, scheduling, or hauling wardrobes across town.
Script 2
One of the most common questions we hear is:
How do I know I’m getting MY pet back?
This concern is completely valid, as the cremation process can feel mysterious to pet parents.
Our answer reflects the foundation of our culture.
One pet at a time.
This commitment is supported by our proprietary software, Pet Tracker, and the honesty, integrity and trust demonstrated daily by our team members.
Pet Tracker incorporates location barcodes throughout our care center to track your pet every step of the way.
