An interactive media system enables creation, editing, and presentation of voice-driven interactive media content. The interactive media content may include prompts for user input via voice, manual input, or gestures. In the case of an audio input, the interactive media player application obtains a text string representing the spoken phrases and matches the text string against a set of expected values corresponding to different predefined responses and each associated with a different possible action. Based on the matching of the phrase to an expected value, the interactive media player application dynamically selects and performs the action associated with the matching response. The action may comprise, for example, transitioning to playback of a different media object (e.g., a second video segment) and/or causing some other functionality programmatically accessible by the interactive media player application to occur.
