English movies, short films and features, transcribed properly

English (English): American, British, Indian, Australian, Irish, Scottish, Nigerian and Singaporean English are transcribed by the same model — there is no accent setting to pick, and no need to tell it which one you have. Numbers, dates and currency are written as digits rather than spelled out, and filler words are kept rather than tidied away, so the transcript matches what was actually said. Heavy crosstalk is the usual limit: two people talking over each other is the one case worth reviewing.

Movie & film subtitless in particular: Dialogue in the film's own language becomes a timestamped SRT/VTT ready for festival submissions, distributor deliverables and accessibility passes. Note: subtitles come out in the language spoken on screen — this is transcription, not translation. A festival-ready SRT of the film's dialogue, a VTT for web players, and searchable dialogue for the edit — then shift or renumber cues in the free browser subtitle toolkit.
