# Define a suitable presenter for a lesson An approved script, audience, language and permitted voice or avatar assets. Updated October 27, 2026 ## Creating a training presenter, in short A training presenter is the on-screen avatar and voice that opens a video lesson, sets up the situation and then hands the screen to the decision the learner has to make. It suits learning designers who cannot film a manager every time a procedure changes. Video lessons with avatar presenters, voice and lip sync are available now, with one profile reused across lessons for a steady look and pronunciation. A cloned or recorded voice of your own is used only with the documented consent of the voice owner, and the lesson says the presenter is synthetic. ## What happens on the free demo - Book 30 minutes. Pick a time with Elvina's team. The demo is free and runs on Zoom. - Show the team your goal. Bring one role or one procedure. The team shows how Elvina would handle it, using sample materials. - Agree on the next step. You leave with a plan for the first step and its price. Nothing reaches your team until you approve it. ## What you bring and what Elvina returns | You bring | Elvina returns, for your approval | Status | |---|---|---| | A lesson script and the look the presenter should have | An avatar presenter with voice and lip sync opening the video lesson | available now | | The manager’s own voice, with her documented consent | The presenter speaking in that voice, with a line noting the presenter is synthetic | available now | | The language the intro is needed in, such as Spanish | The intro translated and voiced in Spanish by the same presenter profile | available now | ## Who this is for, and when A learning designer at a hotel management company builds video lessons for front-desk teams in three states. Filming a general manager every time a check-in procedure changes is not feasible. She wants a consistent on-screen presenter for lesson intros (with voice and appearance the company is permitted to use) that hands off to the actual decision content rather than performing it. ## How it works in Elvina A synthetic presenter introduces a service scenario, then gives the screen to the decision and its feedback. - She uploads the approved script, audience notes, target language and the licensed voice and avatar assets to Company Knowledge with the licensing owner named. - In Creation Studio, Elvina defines a presenter profile (appearance, voice, pacing, pronunciation list for property names) from those assets only. - Elvina generates a short intro segment that sets up the scenario, then cuts to the decision screen and its feedback. - She reviews consent records, pronunciation and tone, and approves the presenter profile for reuse across lessons on the Learning Platform. ## A worked example A fictional operator, Harborlight Hospitality, manages 11 hotels. The learning designer has a licensed synthetic voice and an avatar the company had made for it, both with documented usage rights. The first lesson is 'Late Check-In With No Reservation Found', sourced from the Front Desk Standards manual. - A presenter profile named 'Front Desk Guide' with a pronunciation list for all 11 property names. - A 40-second intro where the presenter frames the situation and then says 'here is the decision you will make', cutting to the branching screen. - A disclosure line in the lesson noting the presenter is synthetic and not an employee. ## What to check before relying on it Review consent, licensing and pronunciation. A synthetic presenter is not evidence of an actual employee or customer endorsement. - The presenter uses only voice and likeness assets with documented consent and license. - Property and product names are pronounced correctly on playback. - The lesson discloses that the presenter is synthetic. - The presenter introduces the scenario without stating the answer. ## Where a person stays in charge A synthetic presenter is a delivery device, not evidence. Elvina does not clone a real employee's voice or face without documented consent uploaded as a source, and it never presents the avatar as a customer or staff endorsement. The learning designer approves each generated segment before it is published, and licensing questions go to the asset owner. ## Who this is not for, and when another tool fits ### This is not the right fit if - You want an avatar that looks like a real employee who has not agreed to it. - You need the presenter to stand in for a customer testimonial. - Your lessons must be filmed with your own staff on site. ### Another kind of tool may fit better - A video crew, when the lesson needs your real people and your real premises on camera. - A voice actor, when a single recorded narration is all you need. ## Questions **Q:** Can we use our general manager's actual voice? Only if she has given documented consent and the recording rights are on file. Upload that consent as a source; without it, Elvina uses a licensed synthetic voice. **Q:** Will the same presenter work in Spanish? A presenter profile can have a language variant if the licensed voice supports it. Pronunciation and phrasing still need a reviewer fluent in that locale. **Q:** Can learners tell the presenter is not a real person? They should. The lesson carries a line saying the presenter is synthetic, and the avatar never poses as a staff member or a customer. Keep that line in every lesson that reuses the same presenter profile. ## Two things you can check on this site - See a sample on the demo.
