Tool Choice #4 - Avatar

This Avatar was created from a website called Voki.com. I found the interface to be simple and easy to use. It offered several choices for face, background, sound effects, etc. I chose to type in the text, rather that using a mic or my phone which would have used my actual voice. I am curious if I could create a recording in Garageband or Audacity and input that into the Avatar. I think this could be very effective with students who tend to lose focus or drift away from listening to me. There are so many fun options intended to really grab the attention of the listener. It really makes me want to invest in a more powerful application for a fee. Maybe I could find one that could imitate my body movements and thus teach students a dance to a song we are performing?

Update on July 31: I just now edited my Avatar by first making a recording in Audacity. It was really easy to get a great sound and edit out what I didn't like. Then I uploaded the file to Voki and re-published my Avatar.
