When "AI slop" makes us suspicious of EVERYTHING. A couple of weeks ago, I invented a new job category for squirrels. It’s fall here in Atlanta, and the tennis and pickleball courts across the street from my house are surrounded by trees. That means leaves. LOTS of leaves. But even more hazardous are the acorns. Now, acorns on their own aren’t hazardous... except when you’re running around the courts slipping on them. It doesn’t help either when a ball hits an acorn on the ground and goes spiraling off in an unexpected direction. Great advantage when you’re on the offense, not so much when trying to return the darn ball. Those acorns are EVERYWHERE this time of year. We sweep them off before playing, sweep them off during play, and occasionally get pinged on the head as another batch comes raining down. At times, it sounds like hail. I looked at all those acorns and thought: This is ridiculous. We need squirrels. But not just your ordinary squirrels. Line Squirrels. If you watch professional tennis, you’ll see ball boys and ball girls rush onto the court between points to scoop up stray balls. I envisioned a similarly efficient squirrel, properly outfitted, darting onto the court between points, gathering the acorns into a little satchel and scurrying away. It’s a win-win! Players get a clean court. Squirrels get a huge, easy-to-gather stash to feed their families throughout the winter. There was just one problem. I couldn’t find a squirrel willing to put on the uniform. So I did what any reasonable person would do. I took a real photo of our acorn-covered tennis court. Then I used ChatGPT to create a cartoon squirrel dressed for the job, complete with his nut-gathering bag, along with some fun lettering that said “Line Squirrel.” I brought everything into Canva, put my imaginary freelancer on my very real tennis court, and posted it. It was cute, silly, and obviously a joke. Then someone called it “AI slop.” WHAAT?? That surprised me. This wouldn’t have happened a year ago. People might have posted, “Cute.” Or “I can relate.” Or even, “When you find a good one, send it my way.” But it’s 2026, and I understand the criticism. People have had it up to here with unwanted AI spam. Our feeds are full of AI-generated content right now, and much of it has a sameness that’s become painfully easy to spot. But back to my Line Squirrel. What stopped me wasn’t the label itself. It was how quickly the label ended the conversation. People aren’t asking, “Is this good?” They’re asking, “Is this AI?” And that's a very different question. My Line Squirrel wasn’t an AI idea. The idea came from me standing on a tennis court, looking at an absurd number of acorns and thinking like the slightly ridiculous human being I apparently am. The photograph was mine. The joke was mine. AI simply allowed me to create one element I couldn’t realistically produce myself. I wasn’t about to wrestle a live squirrel into a tennis uniform. But the reaction told me something important: the pendulum is swinging. We’re becoming so sensitized to AI-generated content that sometimes the mere whiff of AI is enough to make us dismiss the whole thing. How Did “Good Writing” Start Looking Like AI? Part of the problem is that AI has developed some pretty recognizable tells. And once we notice them, we start seeing them everywhere. Remember the early days of ubiquitous emojis? Rocket ships apparently meant you had a really great idea. Then came the em dash. Its wake still leaves many human writers with a bit of angst. The em dash is a perfectly legitimate punctuation mark, but AI used it so relentlessly that suddenly human writers were getting side-eye for using it correctly. Then there’s the rule of three. Three examples. Three adjectives. Three reasons. Over and over and over again. The funny thing is, the rule of three is an actual writing principle because three is satisfying, memorable and often funny. AI didn’t invent it. It learned it from us. Now we have every sentence getting its own paragraph. Why? Because it’s easier on the eye. It creates emphasis. It keeps people scrolling. It’s also exhausting when everything is written that way. (Yeah, I deliberately spaced those sentences out like this.) Hey, AI. A little goes a long way. But we're not done yet! Add in the familiar rhythms, predictable sentence structures and that polished, word-perfect conversational tone, and we’ve reached a strange point: AI learned how to write from good human writing, and now good human writers can be penalized for sounding like AI. I know, because I’ve already seen it happen. I’m a good writer. I was a good writer before ChatGPT showed up. I’ve been published, and I know how to structure an argument and turn a phrase. I’m certainly not going to start writing badly just to prove I’m human. I contributed a chapter on video and YouTube to The Most Amazing Marketing Book Ever, a collaborative marketing book spearheaded by marketing strategist and futurist Mark Schaefer and published in 2023. My chapter was written by me and edited by a human editor. The same was true for the other 35 writers. The book was deliberately structured and tightly edited to make it a useful, cohesive handbook. And some people assumed it was AI-written. Think about that. The very qualities we used to associate with good professional work - clear structure, polished writing, consistency - can now make people suspicious that a human didn’t create it. Aargh, That can’t be where this takes us. So Where Does AI (or AI-Generated Content) Belong? I don’t believe the answer is to stop using AI. I certainly haven’t stopped. AI can be enormously useful for organizing ideas, researching possibilities, challenging your thinking, brainstorming, getting past a blank page and helping turn a pile of thoughts into something you can work with. But right now, I think we need to be much more conscious of where AI ends and the human begins. I saw another sign of the backlash today, this time in my own acting world. Brian Beegle, a highly respected commercial casting director here in Atlanta, came out strongly against actors using AI readers for self-taped auditions: “If you used AI as your reader you need to know it is totally cringeworthy.” Then, even more emphatically: “NEVER use AI.” That’s quite a warning. An audition is fundamentally human. The actor isn’t performing in a vacuum; we’re responding to another person. Replace that person with AI and you may gain convenience, but risk losing the very thing the audition is supposed to reveal: human connection. So where does AI belong? Backstage as your virtual assistant or researcher. Or guide. (Just remember that it tends to make up stuff when it can't find what it needs!) It's a great tool to help you sort your thoughts and present options, especially things you might have missed, like emails waiting for replies. All that tedious work? Yup, offload it so you can focus on the important stuff. That's where AI excels. But when what you create becomes human-facing, put the human back in. Rewrite the post until it sounds unmistakably like you. Don’t accept a presentation just because AI organized it beautifully. Ask whether you are in it. Does it follow your thinking, have your perspective? Or does it sound awfully generic? If you’re creating a video designed to build trust with an audience, think very carefully before replacing your face, your voice or your quirks with something synthetic, simply because you can. People want to see a real person, not your carefully curated avatar or a simile of your voice reading something flawlessly. All that polish screams "Fake!" That kind of perfection quickly becomes commonplace and boring, and boring keeps you broke. I see a version of this in my voiceover work, too. AI voices can be remarkably good, and they’ll continue to improve. For certain applications, they may be perfectly adequate. But “adequate” and “connected” aren’t the same thing. Clients want to hear a real person in a real situation saying their words, and more of them are now returning to using human voice actors. (Yay.) A human performer simply brings something different to the process. A perspective and an interpretation. This hits home with clients who care deeply about the exact intention behind a line, the subtle shift in meaning, the relationship with the listener, or the emotional arc across a longer piece. This stuff matters. There is discernment and an instinct at work, an emotional subtext that often gets to the crux of the idea far better than any spoken word. The viewer or listener may not be able to put their finger on it, but these are the tiny choices that tell another human being there is a living, breathing person someone on the other side of the communication. All this applies well beyond voice over to the work you do. Whether you’re writing a LinkedIn post, delivering a presentation, recording a video, creating a newsletter or speaking to a prospective client, your audience isn’t merely processing your information. They’re deciding what they think of you. They're evaluating: Do I trust you? Do I believe you? Are you saying something because you actually have something to say? Or am I consuming another piece of content manufactured to fill a slot on a content calendar? That’s the danger of AI. It's not really that AI was involved in the making of a piece of content. It's that the human being disappeared in the process. Eventually, I suspect we’ll find our equilibrium. AI will become another tool in the toolbox, and we may stop being quite so preoccupied with whether it touched a piece of content somewhere along the way. But we're not there yet. My best advice? Right now, if your business depends on people trusting you, remembering you or choosing you, err on the side of being unmistakably human. The answer isn’t to make our work sloppier so nobody suspects we had help. It’s to make it more distinctly ours: Our stories Our observations Our sense of humor Our opinions Our peculiar turns of phrase All those "ours" are deliberate. Own your uniqueness and don't be concerned about sharing it with the world. It's often these little things, imperfect though they (and we) may be, that people find relatable. These are the things that come from actually having lived a life, rather than processing a prompt. That’s the distinction we should be paying attention to. Not simply, “Was AI involved?” but, “Is there a human being in here?” It's become my core message: Your humanity is your competitive edge in an AI world. Even if, occasionally, you need AI to put a squirrel in a tennis uniform. So What Do YOU Think of My Cartoon AI Images? I couldn't resist using AI to create the images in this blog. What matters, though, is how they're received. And I really want to know. Do you like them? Consider them AI slop? Or simply indifferent? I chose to use them because I have an idea that I can't find a real photo of... and I'm certainly not an animator or really, any type of graphic design artist. Human idea, automated execution of it done super-fast. Seriously, let me know in the comments what you think. In the meantime, I thought you might be interested in this upcoming masterclass.... Are You in Danger of Becoming AI's Version of a Stepford Wife?

How to make your message matter to the people hearing it OK, this one's a given. You’ve done the work You know your subject Your slides are in order ...and you’ve practiced enough times that the dog leaves the room when you begin. (Tough audience.) Then the big day comes and you give the presentation. Right away, you can tell that something is off. And the result is rather predictable: polite smiles and maybe one or two people telling you it was "very informative." Lovely to hear, unless you were hoping they’d actually do something with the information. When a presentation doesn’t land, it’s tempting to blame the material. So you go back and fix the words. Maybe you add a stronger opening, cut a few slides, or fire up your chatbot to find a more impressive statistic. If you're like me, you'll also hunt down some chocolate to help you feel a bit better. All those things can help, but honestly... I’ve watched people make their material better and better while delivering it in exactly the same way. And it still doesn't land. Yes, the audience gets the information and maybe it's a bit clearer, but what they don't get is the full force of the person behind it. Your presentation lands when people hear why it matters, not just what you know. That "oops" moment when you suddenly freeze and can't think of what to say. Ugh. Knowing WHAT to say is only the beginning As an actor, I can tell you that knowing your lines is only the beginning. I can say the same sentence ten different ways and make you hear ten different meanings. Take "We need to make this change." I could say it as a warning, a plea, or an invitation. Same words. Very different message. While the words themselves haven’t changed, what I'm thinking, feeling, and trying to get from the other person has. Before you present, ask yourself what you want your audience to understand or do. This is your intention. How do you want them to react? Do you want them to feel inspired? Aware of other possibilities? Emotionally invested in the outcome? Or maybe ready to take a specific action? Those words just LOVE running away from you when you need them most. Stop chasing the "perfect" words When you're busy trying to remember - in the middle of your presentation, no less - the exact right words you'd written down earlier... you're sunk. If you're concerned that you must be polished, professional, and seemingly perfect throughout the entire presentation or speech... you're sunk. If you're doubting yourself or your qualifications, feeling like a bit of an imposter... you know the words by now. My point is this: how you deliver your presentation or speech matters as much as your subject matter. Sometimes more, especially if your intention is to inspire your audience to take action! If you're explaining a recommendation you believe could save a client a lot of trouble, consider these points: If you’re focused on remembering what comes next, you may rush past the very point they need to hear. If you’re busy trying to sound polished, your voice may become so even (or monotone) that your client can’t tell which part matters most. If you're trying to be perfect in your speech, you may be so focused inward that your client thinks you're unprepared, uncertain about what you're saying, or not completely trustworthy... and you may lose their buy-in. I’ve seen terrific speakers do this, too. They’ve rehearsed every transition and know exactly when to advance the slides. Meanwhile, I’m in the audience thinking, You clearly care about this. Can you let us in on why? Communication is a real connection between the speaker and the audience. We have to feel your energy, as well as your thoughts. We need to be moved by what you're saying before we take action. It's easier to land the plane when you know where you're going. It's time to land the presentation plane Before your next presentation, try this: Pick one moment you most want your audience to remember. It might be a recommendation, a story, or a number that changes how they see the problem. Say that part out loud and record yourself. Then listen back without looking at your slides. Could someone tell, from your voice alone, that this matters to you? If not, resist the urge to make the sentence fancier. Just give yourself a second before you say it. Let the thought affect you before you move on. Talk to one person, even if you have to imagine them in front of you. Making it personal changes the tone of your voice and how you explain things. You become less formal, your vocal quality naturally changes, and you become more interesting to listen to. Most importantly, your audience will lean in, because they feel like you're talking directly to them and their concerns. Test out your storytelling with an honest friend. You can also ask someone you trust a better question than “How was I?” Ask: “Where did you lean in, and where did you start thinking about lunch?” A kind friend may hesitate to answer the second part. Buy them lunch if necessary, but find out! A good honest reaction will help you improve your presentation skills tremendously, assuming you're willing to accept constructive criticism and make the adjustments. A little practice, honest feedback, and suddenly your message sounds like you mean it. Get up to speed in a hurry Got something important coming up soon? Good delivery doesn’t mean being louder, pacing around the room, or sprinkling dramatic pauses over every sentence. (Please don’t. We have enough drama.) It means your audience can hear what you mean, recognize why it matters, and stay with you long enough to act on it. We both know that you already know your stuff. You're the expert. Your presentation should sound like it. If you have a speech, webinar, or presentation coming up, I can help you make sure it does.

How to stop overthinking the camera and start coming across like yourself. The first time I really started paying attention to myself on camera, I discovered something slightly horrifying. I knew how to talk. And I knew my material. After all, I had spent years in corporate environments where I could sit across from executives, make my case, and feel perfectly comfortable doing it. But put a camera in front of me? The problems were EVERYWHERE. What was I doing with my hands? They looked like they had a life of their own and were taking over the screen. Was I sitting on a tack? Maybe, because I was leaning over slightly, doing a pretty convincing impression of the Tower of Pisa. Meanwhile, my eyes were looking at something in the distance (maybe a cheat sheet?) and my voice sounded like I was reading a hostage statement. Forget the Twilight Zone.... Welcome to the Red Light Syndrome It's positively eerie. That little recording light has an amazing ability to make perfectly capable people forget how to be themselves. And I understand it because I’ve been on both sides of the equation. I went from the corporate world into acting and voiceover, where being comfortable in front of a camera or microphone is quite literally part of my job. What I’ve learned is that camera confidence isn’t something you’re born with. It’s a skill. And like any skill, you can get much better at it. So whether you’re on Zoom, recording a LinkedIn video, filming training content or preparing for an interview, here are 10 things that can make an immediate difference. Please, learn from my mistakes! 1. Recognize Red Light Syndrome You’re perfectly articulate until somebody says, “We’re recording.” Then suddenly you’re aware of your hands, your face, your voice and your posture. Even your eyebrows seem to be doing things without permission. Weird. That’s Red Light Syndrome. The important thing is to understand what’s happening. And relax! You haven’t suddenly lost your ability to communicate. You’re simply trying to talk while also monitoring yourself, and that’s a lot harder than it sounds. It's not particularly helpful, either, so please stop it. Actors train for this. Broadcasters, too. It's a skill you can pick up, as well. 2. Talk to the Viewer, Not the Camera This is one of my favorite tricks: don’t talk to the camera. Talk to a person through the camera. Picture one specific person on the other side of that lens. Maybe it’s a client, a colleague or someone who really needs to hear what you have to say. Then talk to that person as if they were physically right there in front of you. You’ll probably notice a difference almost immediately. Your voice becomes more conversational, your face relaxes and you stop sounding as though you’re “presenting.” You come across more as a friend, which is exactly what we want. The person watching needs to feel a connection with you, and this is one of the best ways to create that feeling that you're having a 1:1 conversation with them. 3. Know Your First Sentence Do you want people to click away before you even finish your first sentence? Then please don’t start your next video with, “Hi, everyone. So, ummm... I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to talk about today...” Or don't start with, "Hi, my name is ________ and I want to talk to you about...." Ho hum, on to the next video. Hit the ground running with an interesting observation, statistic, or fun fact. Something that gets my attention. A question works. Even a corny dad joke done right (and if it's relevant) will make me smile and see what else you have to say. Here are some examples: “Are you making this mistake on Zoom?” “Your presentation problem probably isn’t your content.” "82% of people creating content are doing this one thing wrong." Once you get that first sentence out confidently, everything gets easier. 4. Be a Person, Not a Talking Head The most engaging people on camera are the ones who look comfortable in their skin. They're relaxed, their expression changes as they talk, and they move naturally within their frame. Sit or stand tall, relax your shoulders and position the camera at roughly eye level. Give yourself enough room in the frame to move naturally. And yes, use your hands. You use them when you talk to people in real life, don’t you? Your body is part of the conversation. Let it participate. 5. Look at the Lens This one trips up almost everybody. It sounds simple, but often it's not, especially in Zoom rooms. When you look at someone’s face on your computer screen, it feels to you as though you’re making eye contact. But if you’re talking to someone in a Zoom box fairly far away from your camera lens, let's say near the bottom of the gallery view, everyone may just be seeing the top of your head. What if you're recording a video directly to your audience? You may very well be looking away from them, especially if you're trying to reference notes that you may have posted to one side of your camera. Here's the thing: the camera lens is your viewer's eyes. That doesn’t mean you have to stare into it like you’re trying to hypnotize somebody, but when you want to make a point or create connection, look there. If you need notes, keep them as close to the camera as possible, so your eyes aren’t constantly darting around. 6. Dress for the Camera You don’t need a special “video wardrobe,” but clothes do behave differently on camera. Tiny patterns can look strange. Very bright colors can take over the frame. Jewelry that seems perfectly innocent in person can become surprisingly noisy when there’s a microphone nearby. My basic rule is simple: I want people looking at you, not wondering what your blouse is doing. If something is fighting for attention, simplify it. Your face and your message should get top billing. Want a go-to look? Pick a shirt or blouse in a solid color, one that looks good on you. Stay away from white, though; it doesn't always reflect well on camera. Note your background, and choose a color that complements vs. one that competes with it for attention. 7. Take One Good Breath When we get nervous, we tend to breathe more shallowly. Then we start talking faster, our voices get tighter, and suddenly we’re racing through a two-minute video as though someone has released the hounds. Before you start, take a good breath. Let it out. Drop your shoulders and then begin. You do not need a 20-minute meditation before every Zoom call. Sometimes one decent breath will do nicely. 8. Vary Your Speaking Delivery A Zoom meeting is not a LinkedIn video. A training video is not a podcast. And none of those is a commercial. Different situations need different pacing and energy. On Zoom, people need a little more time to absorb information and respond. With prerecorded video, you can usually tighten things up. Also remember that nerves mess with your internal speedometer. You may think you’re speaking at a lovely, leisurely pace while everyone else hears an auctioneer. Every once in a while, record yourself and watch it back. Yes, I know. Nobody enjoys doing this at first. Do it anyway. You’ll start noticing where you rush, where your energy drops and where a pause would make your point much stronger. 9. Wake Up Your Voice As a voice actor, I’m especially aware of this one. Your voice is a huge part of how you come across. You don’t need an elaborate vocal warm-up before recording a short business video, but give your voice a chance to wake up before you expect it to perform. Hum a little. Read your opening aloud. Loosen your jaw. And please don’t put on your “professional voice.” You know the one. It sounds Very Serious and Important and nothing like you. Your natural voice is almost always more interesting. 10. Practice Until You Stop Thinking About It You're not going to get away from practicing. The truth is, nobody becomes comfortable on camera by waiting to feel comfortable on camera. You get there by doing it. I didn’t go from the corporate world into acting and voiceover because I woke up one morning magically comfortable in front of a lens. I learned. I practiced. I took direction. I tried things that worked and quite a few things that absolutely did not. And I bombed more than a few times. Eventually, the mechanics became familiar enough that I stopped thinking about them so much. And that’s really where you want to get. You stop wondering what your hands are doing. You stop monitoring every facial expression. You stop trying so hard to look and sound “professional.” You just communicate. And that’s the whole point. Before You Hit Record... Become More Confident On Camera You do not need to fix everything at once. Pick one thing to work on. Maybe this week you pay attention to your eyeline. Next week, notice your pace. Then work on your opening. Small changes add up quickly when you actually practice them. The goal isn’t to look like someone who has spent 20 years in front of a camera. The goal is to look like you. Just more comfortable, more confident and far less concerned about what your eyebrows are doing. Still Feeling Awkward on Camera? That’s exactly the kind of thing I help people fix. In my one-on-one coaching, we work on how you actually come across when the camera goes on. We look at what’s helping you connect, what’s getting in your way and what relatively small changes can make a surprisingly big difference. Because you don’t need to become someone else on camera. You need to get comfortable enough to let us see you. And yes, your hands will eventually figure out what to do. What’s your biggest on-camera challenge? Let’s talk about it.

Who I Am & What I Do Laura Doman is a professional voice actor providing commercial, corporate narration, explainer video, eLearning, medical, telephony, and character voiceover services from her Atlanta-based studio. I work with brands, agencies, educators, healthcare organizations, and content creators who need a voice that feels human, confident, and trustworthy — not generic or overproduced. Business Sense Meets Performance Skill Before stepping behind the mic full-time, I spent years as a tech industry sales executive , telling business stories, educating clients, and addressing real-world concerns. Today, I bring that same clarity and credibility to my work as a professional voice actor, film & TV actress, and on-camera communications trainer. From tech startups and Fortune 500 companies to local businesses and educators, I understand what you’re building — and how strong storytelling supports it. My voice doesn’t just sound g ood. It speaks from experience. Voiceover Services I provide professional voiceover for: Commercials (broadcast & digital) Corporate narration & internal communications Explainer videos & SaaS demos eLearning & training modules Medical & healthcare narration Telephony & IVR systems Characters & animation Each project is approached with intention, adaptability, and respect for the audience on the other side of the message. A Voice With Range — and Point of View I bring a positive, get-it-done attitude to every project, along with plenty of fun when the script calls for it. Need character work for eLearning, animation, or branded content? I’ve got you there, too. I’m a working film and TV actress and an active member of a local improv company , which means I know how to listen, respond, and bring characters to life naturally. Some voices I’m known for: The approachable, hands-on CEO Your best gal pal with sage advice (and a little sass) Mom… who’s (sigh) right again I’ve played all of those roles — on screen, in the booth, and in real life (just ask my kids). Why Clients Choose Me Because I get both sides of the mic. Having lived in both the business and creative worlds , I understand goals, timelines, messaging, and tone — and how to deliver exactly what a project needs without overcomplicating the process.

The process is straightforward, collaborative, and designed to keep things moving smoothly from start to finish. FAQs Where are you based and how do you work with clients? I’m in Atlanta, Georgia and work with clients locally, nationwide, and internationally. Location is never a barrier. Some clients prefer in-person recording sessions at their studios, while many projects are completed independently from my broadcast-quality home studio. Others choose to remotely direct sessions in real time, allowing for live collaboration regardless of location. What equipment do you use in your professional home studio? My broadcast-quality, acoustically treated home studio has been built specifically for professional voice over. The setup includes a Sennheiser 416 and Rode NT1 (two high-quality microphones), the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th gen professional audio interface, and Adobe Audition, industry-standard recording software, to ensure clean, consistent sound with excellent clarity and low noise. The studio is optimized for reliable, production-ready audio that meets the standards required for commercials, corporate narration, eLearning, medical content, animation, and telephony. How do clients direct sessions with you remotely? Clients can direct sessions live and in real time using the platform they prefer. I'm equipped for remote direction via Source-Connect , ipDTL , Microsoft Teams , Zoom , and other commonly used tools — making collaboration easy, flexible, and seamless regardless of location.

My professional voiceover work runs the gamut: commercials, corporate narration, explainer videos, eLearning and training, medical narration, telephony and IVR systems, political, and character and animation projects. What makes you different from other voice actors? A rare combination of business experience and performance skill . With a background as a tech industry executive and years working as a professional actor, I understand both messaging strategy and storytelling—resulting in voiceovers that sound authentic, confident, and human. How quickly can you turn around a project? Turnaround times vary by project scope, but you'll see fast, reliable delivery without sacrificing quality. Timelines are discussed upfront so expectations are clear. During election season, political voice overs often need to be delivered within hours, while large eLearning projects allow for a week.
