Learn to set the right frame rate based on the style of video you’re creating.
When editing a video, the frame rate (fps) refers to the number of images displayed per second. In the Firefly video editor (beta), you can set the timeline frame rate to match your project, whether for YouTube, social media, or films. This determines the overall speed and smoothness of your final video.
Before you begin:
Create a project and add media files to the timeline.
The Timeline properties panel gets enabled.
Use the Frame rate dropdown menu to select one of the available ones.
Tip
A higher frame rate makes motion look smoother and more lifelike, while a lower frame rate creates a softer, cinematic feel.
