"...It is into this dull void that Vox Proxy steps in, with a software suite that enables you to add animated characters to your presentations. These are not just any type of characters but characters that you can make do just about anything you want. They speak and move with you in full control to add life and dynamism to your presentations.

Vox Proxy does for Power Point what Odd Cast does for Web sites. If you give a lot of presentations I would highly encourage you to at least have a look at Vox Proxy, try it out and see if it's for you."

"Vox Proxy, created and sold by RightSeat Software is a great way to bring an additional level of interaction to your PPT presentations. To put the product through its paces, I created a very basic script for a four slide presentation. It touches on the highlights of the process of script creation. As I created the scripts, I was amazed by the abilities of the characters. They can read, write, do magic, move, speak, and wait. In addition, each of the characters have thier own special actions you have to see to believe.

VoxProxy can be very addicting. I can see uses for this all over the place."

"Have you ever SEEN a PowerPoint presentation you could describe as entertaining? Probably not. Most likely that’s due to limited funds. With a bigger budget, we could add a professional narrator, tightly integrated music and carefully choreographed graphics. There are, however, ways to liven a presentation up without having to invest lots of time or money.

Vox Proxy Version 2 from Right Seat Software adds talking 3D-animated characters to your PowerPoint slides. It’s easy to use and relatively inexpensive ($199). While many multimedia add-on products fail because the resulting quality is less than professional, the results from Vox Proxy can be quite good, depending on how you use it. The program has a built-in text-to-speech engine that sounds just as you would expect—overly electronic to be convincing. However, if you purchase Vox Proxy’s AT&T Natural Voices add-on pack ($60 for two voices), the text-to-speech voices are almost indistinguishable from real voices.

There are no royalties involved with creating a CD. You could create a self-starting training program or product demo narrated by a group of 3D-animated characters, and then distribute the presentation on CD to your employees or customers.

Vox Proxy does a good job of integrating with PowerPoint. There are two ways to create Vox Proxy scripts. You can select the characters, gestures, character commands, speech tags, program variables and other script functions directly from the menus, or you can code the script manually using the simple programming language. This strong integration allows you to create your PowerPoint slides and Vox Proxy scripts simultaneously. You can preview the animation and fine tune how the characters line up with the graphics on the slide."

Roll your own

"For something really different, check out Vox Proxy from Right Seat Software. It's a cool authoring program for MS PowerPoint that costs about $200, and lets you easily insert one or more talking, 3-D animated characters into your slide shows. Characters can perform dozens of animated actions and speak any text you provide for them. Programming for basic slide shows is easy, with pull-down menus for most functions. Advanced operations are available through a simple, scripting language. Remote viewing is typically accomplished via a free "viewer" application."

"If PowerPoint plays a large role in your training presentations or tutorials, chances are you're constantly looking for ways to spruce it up. Try adding some character - literally. Right Seat Software's Vox Proxy program lets you add three-dimensional, talking, animated figures to your slideshow. The cast of 27 characters - ranging from men and women to parrots and robots - speaks from a script that you create. You can even add some international flair by scripting in other languages, such as French, German, Spanish, Russian, or Japanese. Or have the characters literally take the words out of your mouth by giving them your own recorded voice. The software easily configures with PowerPoint, adding its own drop-down menus."

Vox Proxy Review: 3 bulbs out of 4
Published January, 2003

"Two things particularly impressed us. First was the short learning curve. You can effectively use this product within 30 minutes of installation. The tutorials are excellent. They are well structured, clear, concise and pertinent to the skills you need to learn.

Second is the scriptwriting wizard. It allows you to easily add exactly what you want said and by whom. Adding speech is as simple as typing the word "say" followed by the dialogue. The wizard gives you a menu-driven list to select which character(s) you want to appear, move and gesture. It worked as simply a 'drag-and-drop' or right-click and select. Within minutes we were putting together truly entertaining presentations of completely mundane subjects."

Vox Proxy adds character to PowerPoint presentations
Published October, 2002

Teachers who use PowerPoint in the classroom might want to check into an add-on program called Vox Proxy, from Right Seat Software. The application allows you to add animated characters to your presentations, and some teachers find it a boon in the classroom, reports the Hampton Road, Virginia, Daily Press. A reporter sat in recently as instructor Chuck Walsh taught a German lesson at local Denbigh High with some assistance from a cartoon doppelganger that appeared on a monitor in front of the classroom. Students seemed genuinely excited and interested in the exchanges.

“It's a lot of fun,” Walsh says of his efforts to incorporate Vox Proxy into his lessons. “It's one more way of getting and holding the attention of students. It's more exciting to have characters come on to explain a grammar point or explain an assignment for the day.”

The program got a vote of confidence from sophomore Sean Bland, who said, “At least you hear the information or see it in a different way. It helps you remember more if you add it to the teaching methods.”


Program adds pizzazz to presentations

by Mike Berman, Scripps Howard News Service, Published October 16, 2002

"Boredom: What often occurs while sitting through a presentation as you view slide after slide, with little sign of relief. So, what's the cure? Vox Proxy from Right Seat Software, a nifty little program that allows you to add animated characters and speech to those presentations, which makes them at least tolerable.

I found Vox Proxy extremely easy to use and had few problems synchronizing the characters' speech and movements with slides containing the usual charts, graphs and other data contained in most Power Point presentations. In fact, if you can point, type and click, you should have no problem spicing up your material."

"You can interact with the character if you set it up right" Pescatore said. "He can walk as I'm talking, I can have him walk behind me and make faces behind my back. That really gets the crowd going. I try to have the character do unique things at important points in my lecture. If they can remember a funny gesture, they'll remember a particular point."

TEACHER GETS HELP FROM A FEW CHARACTERS
Vox Proxy makes lessons memorable, by Stephanie Barrett
Published June 3, 2002

The author interviews Denbigh High School German teacher Chuck Walsh about his use of Vox Proxy in the classroom:

"A man named Chuck with a slight resemblance to David Letterman appears on the center of the
screen with a bright red background. Speaking in German, he tells the class he's a friend of
Walsh's.
"What is that?" a student asks.
The cartoon character turns his attention to two students in Walsh's class and calls out their
names. He asks whether they're sleeping.
The class bursts with laughter."

"It's a lot of fun," he said. "It's one more way of getting and holding the attention of students. ...
It's more exciting to have characters come on to explain a grammar point or explain an

ADDING POWER TO POWERPOINT
How to enhance a successful presentation and bring it to the desktop by Bob Walters

An article on various tools that can be used to enhance PowerPoint presentations, with a focus on Vox Proxy.


Selling Power.com Presentations Newsletter

WHAT A CHARACTER!
Published February 25, 2002

"Imagine yourself at your next sales presentation. You've been talking about the various features in your line of office copiers and the audience is starting to get restless when suddenly an animated character pops on screen and, using gestures and sound, says, "Hey, Bob. You haven't told them about the new FZ-56 zippy copy function!" "Oh yes," you reply. "Thank you for reminding me." You then discuss this new feature with an audience that is now reawakened and focused, anticipating the next appearance of your animated "assistant.""

"It works, says Jack Quinn, vice president and general manager of Spirits West, a Seattle-based distributor, wholesaler and broker of alcoholic beverages and an early user of Vox Proxy. He says employees and suppliers have been "delighted" by the technology, which the company is using for sales meetings, training and presentations to suppliers. "Most sales meetings are as serious as a heart attack and this lightens the mood a little," he says. In live presentations, "We'll get the character to say hello and welcome the supplier, then we might have him point out a big increase in business by having him point to a chart and say something like, 'Wow! Look at these numbers!'""

In his business tech "Database" column of February 10, 2002, The Ledger's associate editor Lonnie Brown says:

"Some people believe that the worst thing about the technology revolution is the computer-produced slide presentation. [PowerPoint] Slides have been spun, dissolved, twisted, morphed, spindled and mutilated until there isn't anything new under the sun."

"Enter Vox Proxy ... from Right Seat Software Inc. It integrates with PowerPoint, adding 3-D cartoon characters who can talk to the audience using text-to-speech technology."

"It takes no programming skills to put the characters on the screen and make them go through their motions. Dropdown menus and tutorials explain everything."

"Tutorials demonstrate Vox Proxy's various features, with the characters themselves doing the work on the monitor screen. It's a painless way of learning Vox Proxy's capabilities and seeing the end result."
