Animation Worksheet: Frames and Frame Rate
Creator's tip (Seconds times fps): Frames = seconds × fps (5 seconds at 24 fps = 120 frames). Seconds = frames ÷ fps (36 frames at 24 fps = 1.5 seconds). Minutes: change to seconds first (× 60). On twos: drawings = frames ÷ 2. A higher frame rate looks smoother.
