The Presidential Prompter.
The Presidential Prompter is used more and more frequently by public speakers. It frees them from worry about memorizing their copy perfectly, or making a mistake or saying anything other than exactly what they intended.
The more important the speech, the more important the need for a presidential teleprompter. The device consists of two relatively inconspicuous stands with a thin glass panel atop each.
The speaker sees his/her copy projected on the glass to the right and left of him/her while the audience sees nothing but transparent glass. Thus, the speaker can keep eye contact with the audience, feel relaxed and “on message”, while delivering a terrific speech that conveys exactly what the speaker intends.
If you are an educational institution, medium to large size company or public speaker, you really want to find out more about how to not only use a teleprompter but the more useful presidential teleprompter or Errol Morris Interrotron. Teleprompters are often called autocue devices in non-us jurisdictions.

A presidential teleprompter (also known as a speech prompter) is a pair of semi-transparent mirrors mounted on two narrow stands placed at a 45 degree angle. There is a monitor underneath which is reflected off the mirror, but the text is only visible from the speaker-side due to the anti-reflective coating on the backside of if.
As the speaker does not need to look down to consult written notes, he or she appears to have memorized the speech or be speaking spontaneously, without distraction.
Presidential teleprompt
ers are useful both with and without cameras. It’s helpful in situations where the speaker is addressing an audience and does not need to be speaking directly into the camera. The cameraman is able to capture the speaker from all angles, especially angles where the speaker is not facing the mirror.
But more and more frequently presidential prompters are used to simply give confidence to the speaker that he/she will say exactly what he/she wishes without looking down at a their printed notes and loosing eye contact with the audience.

What is a Presidential Teleprompter?
Presidential Teleprompters prompters look a bit like twin glass music stands positioned on each side of the speaker. Copy is projected from a screen placed below and out o sight of the audience. The speaker can view the copy as it unfolds seen on both panels to his/her right and left. The view of the audience is unobstructed and while the audience may see the glass panels, they cannot see the copy displayed. Unseen is a professional prompter operator whose job it is to synchronize the moving copy with the confortable pace of speaker.
What are down stage monitors or as they are often called floor monitors or confidence monitors?
These are big video monitors or projection screens positioned in the presenter’s line of sight as he/she addresses the audience.
How dos one decide between using presidential prompters, conference monitors and down stage monitors?
If the speaker uses a lectern, he/she would use presidential teleprompters. If he/she wants to roam about the audience use down stage monitors.
When Prompters Fail!

What happens when teleprompters fail? On air talent, whether in news or entertainment, rely on professional teleprompters to enable them to, not only get the story exactly right, but to look straight into the camera and deliver their dialogue with sincerity and total believability. When the prompter fails, they are left to their ability to improvise on the spot. Some do this far better than others. Witness the poor news anchor whose prompter fails in the midst of a story while he’s live on air:
The take away? Make sure your teleprompter is totally reliable and your operator is a professional. Just give The American Movie Company, a call during office hours at 212-952-1800 or anytime at 917-414-5489. We’ll get you the right prompter and a professional operator at the best price in town. We also supply Presidential Prompters and the new Earl Morris Interritrons either at your location or in one of our green screen sound stages at 50 Broadway, Manhattan.
