I have a 27-minute-58-second speech video in English (around 11 GB) and I need clean, accurately timed subtitles burned in along the bottom. The subtitles must appear in a solid background box so they stay legible against every scene. Because there is no existing transcript, the first stage is to create one from scratch. Once the words are captured, please proof-read for accuracy, break the text into natural, two-line captions, and sync each caption so it enters and exits exactly with the speaker’s pace—no lingering, no early pops. I will need the following delivered: • A polished, time-coded .srt (or compatible) file. • The full transcript as a separate text document. • An exported H.264/MP4 master with the boxed subtitles permanently embedded, matching the original resolution and frame rate. Captions should follow common readability standards: no more than ~42 characters per line, sentence-case where appropriate, and speaker changes clearly marked. I’ll review for spelling, timing accuracy, and overall presentation; once everything lines up cleanly we are done. I’m ready to send the footage right away and would like to wrap this up promptly while staying within my budget constraints. Let me know your timeline and any questions you have so we can get started.
