Fps stands for frames per second. First, we need to understand what each word means. Frame, meaning each drawn figure of a single "take" (may it be drawn on a software, or paper), and per second means per 100 milliseconds; second is just a unit of time.
Therefore, let's for example say that a person had animated a traditional animation at 12 fps. This means, for every 12 "takes" of drawn images, it will take one second to view. 12 frames per second is the standard for most animated films. So, in this case, 24 frames per second would mean that one second will pass for every 24 "takes".
Most animated films run at 24 fps. This is known to be the default fps in a given movie or animation to keep the smoothness at an acceptable level. If the frame rate is below 24 fps then the viewer may identify shaky block images in the movie. Higher the fps, better will be the smoothness.
For a beginning 30-second animation, you typically need around 720 to 900 frames, assuming a frame rate of 24 to 30 frames per second. This means you'd create about 24 frames per second multiplied by 30 seconds for a total of 720 frames at 24 fps, or 900 frames at 30 fps. However, the number of frames may vary depending on the animation style and the use of techniques like keyframing or limited animation, which can reduce the total count.
Disney , as well as other animation studios , used what is known today as traditional hand drawn animation techniques using cels at 24 FPS (Frames Per Second) which are also known as key-frames .
It depends on the media you are using. For example : Standard animation is around 16 (although some professional animators use 20 frames per second) fps (fps means frames per second), in film (or shooting a movie) there are 24 frames per second. There are a few things to realize though: the less frames you use the more choppy it will look, the more you use the smoother it will look, giving it a more natural feel. To find the answer to your question you must ask yourself 1 more; Is it animation or film? From that answer you can figure it out. For 2 seconds of animation there will be around 32 to 40 fps. For film there will be 48 fps.
To create the impression of movement, in a computer game, movie, etc., lots of pictures are shown quickly, one after the other. Each individual picture is called a "frame" in this context. A high FPS number results in a smooth animation.
24/25/50 fps
It depends what your fps (frames per second) is set to. For example, if your fps is 24, each frame lasts 1/24 of a second. My fps setting is on the bottom of the timeline panel, the default seems to be 24.
