I am not sure if this is what you want. I have not used it myself though.

I recommend entering "French Pronunciation phonetique opposition" into youtube and it will find "some" videos by Vincent, a friendly gentleman who has created such an amazing amount of quality learning materials that he is hardly ever mentioned at all, I guess people feel overwhelmed or something like that, such is life. His account is Imagiers, his website http://www.imagiers.net/. Cheryl A. Demharter is an elegant lady, whose videos on French Pronunciation are another excellent resource. Her website is frenchsounds, her youtube account frenchsounds. 6 persons have voted this message useful | |||

FSI French Phonology usually gets mentioned, but personally I don't think it's the best.
The Prononciation française pour de vrai DVD set is quite good. It's a series of lectures that covers prosody first in quite a lot of detail, using recordings of interviews with native speakers as examples, and then goes into all of the individual sounds. It's aimed at English speakers and it covers a lot of the difficulties and differences that they encounter when learning French pronunciation. It uses some phonetic transcription, but I can't remember how much off the top of my head. It's entirely in (very clearly spoken) French, with no English; there's another product by the same woman called "French pronunciation: your key to success" which is delivered in English and aimed at less advanced speakers, although I've not seen it so I don't know if it's any good. Good luck - in my experience, the pronunciation has definitely been one of the most difficult things about learning French!
