The system includes a multimedia information input unit (10) for organising text, information and individual characteristic. A data distributor (11) distributes the information of the multimedia information input unit to the information for each media. A speech processor converts the text distributed by the data distributor to a phoneme stream for estimation of prosopic information and for symbolising the information. A prosopic processor (13) calculates a value of a prosopic control parameters from the symbolised prosopic information using a rule and a table. A synchronisation adjusting unit (14) adjust the duration of the phoneme using the distributed synchronisation information. A signal processor (15) generates a synthetic speech using the prosopic control parameter and data of a synthetic data base (16). A picture output unit (17)output the distributed picture information onto a screen.
