  I am a dedicated English-to-French translator and freelance subtitler with over five years of experience translating content to French-speaking markets. I translate across multiple industries, such as entertainment and education, corporate communications, online media, legal, technical, finance, and banking translations. I have subtitled and translated feature films, TV series, documentaries, webinars, ad videos, and online courses, ensuring the final content translates the original message but is also linguistically and culturally acceptable to the target audience. My subtitle work involves accurate timing, synchronisation, and readability with software assistance like Aegisub, Subtitle Edit, and Amara to produce clean, well-timed subtitles for artistic purposes. I am extremely sensitive to tone, idiomatic language, and audience expectation to preserve the emotional and contextual impact of the original work. Whether I'm working with rapid-fire dialogue or technical narration, I always deliver high-quality, polished work with quick turnaround times. One long-term project I worked on was the translation of the script from English to French of an Indian TV show called "Ik Reeshta Saajhedari Ka", then creating an SRT file in perfect accordance with the video file. We started the project in September 2020 and ended it by August 2021. It was a translation and subtitling project for a French client.
