The only packages I'm aware of that were more or less designed for developing powerpointesque presentations are "mgp" and "egon". Personally, I find animations and fancy special effects in presentations distracting from the content. Usually I prepare my presentations in LaTeX using its slides class; lately I've been using PDF as the final output format as it preserves layout and is usable on many systems (including the windows machines people typically seem to use for driving beamers); see http://www.wi.leidenuniv.nl/~jdassen/talks/ortec/ for an example.
