Vows need exact words
A wedding film lives on the vows. If a name or a promise is misspelled, the whole moment feels off. Sycamore transcribes the audio with word‑level timing so each line appears as the bride or groom says it.
You can click any word in the transcript to correct it. The timing stays, so you never have to re‑sync after a typo.
Common subtitle pitfalls
Leaving captions at the bottom where the ring box and cake appear.
Put captions at the top so the product stays visible and the ceremony stays clear.
Using a single long line that covers the couple’s faces.
Set words per line to two or three so the text never blocks a smile.
Choosing a color that blends with the dress or backdrop.
Pick a highlight color that contrasts with the scene, like white on dark interiors or gold on light fabrics.
