Frame rate is the number of individual frames displayed or recorded each second in a video or animation. It is usually measured in frames per second (FPS). A higher frame rate can make motion appear smoother because more images are shown during each second. Common frame rates include 24 FPS for cinematic video, 30 FPS for general video, and 60 FPS for smoother motion.
Frame rate affects how a video looks and how much data it requires. Higher rates can capture fast-moving scenes more clearly but may require more storage and processing power. Lower rates use less data but can make movement appear less smooth. Choosing an appropriate frame rate depends on the type of content, recording equipment, playback platform, and desired visual effect.
