Description
The number of frames captured or displayed per second (fps) in a video influences its smoothness and motion.
Usage
The frame rate is crucial in determining the look and feel of a video. Typical frame rates include 24 fps (standard for film), 30 fps (standard for TV), and 60 or 120 fps (used for smoother or slow motion, often in sports or action footage). The choice of frame rate affects the video's smoothness and realism; higher frame rates result in smoother motion, while lower frame rates can give a more cinematic look.
