French Subtitler & Translator | SRT, MTPE & QC on AI Subtitles

Native French subtitler and translator. I turn English video into French subtitles that stay readable on screen and land on the right frame, delivered as SRT, VSS. I also run MTPE and QC on AI-generated subtitles: I fix machine and AI output so it reads native. You've probably seen the failures already. Lines that overrun. A cut that lands mid-sentence. An AI-generated SRT that looks fine: until a French viewer spots the machine phrasing in seconds. Closing that gap is the whole job, and it's what I do. I work to your real constraints: characters per line, reading speed in cps, frame-accurate timing, shot changes, your style guide. The result reads like French, written for the screen, not machine output lightly cleaned up. English to French, here's what I deliver: - Video subtitling and captions, SRT as standard (VTT or ASS on request), timed and QC'd - MTPE and QC on AI-generated subtitles: - I fix machine and AI output so it sounds native, and flag the recurring errors your tool makes - Subtitle translation and video localization: corporate, training, e-learning - Transcription, verbatim or clean, with timestamps and speaker tracking - French proofreading against your guidelines How I work: I confirm scope and timing before I touch the file, subtitle in Subtitle Edit and Aegisub, and check every line against the audio and your style guide before delivery. NDAs are fine. Why clients come back: - Native French (France), 8+ years on Upwork, 100+ jobs done - I catch the machine phrasing, mistimed lines, misheard terms that AI and MT leave behind - I flag genuinely inaudible passages with a timestamp. - I go find the real equivalent instead of guessing. - That research is where most of the work hides, and where a lot of people cut corners. Send the file or a sample. I'll check the scope and confirm a timeline before we start, and I'm happy to do a short paid test so you can judge the work yourself. What clients say "Adil is a real asset to us. He delivers quality work and quickly produces transcriptions (SRT) with French time codes. He also enables us to check and correct automatic French transcriptions. He has quickly become our reference for these tasks!" "Adil has done an outstanding job correcting time-coded transcriptions. We are constantly working with him on anything related to transcription in EN and FR. 10/10." "Adil provided English to French translation and subtitle services for a 15-minute animated film. The work was completed as agreed and in a very timely manner."
