The way frame rate and shutter speed can be adjusted can greatly affect an audience's emotion toward a certain scene.
On No Film School's article, frame rate is defined as the number of frames captured per second, and shutter speed is duration of time each frame is exposed to light. They say the basic rule is: the standard setting for your shutter speed is double your frame rate.
The author does a great job at showing examples of how higher frame rates can benefit slow motion shots and also how fast shutter speeds result in clear images. The article provides two videos to show these examples. However, the author could do better by explaining more variations of how shutter speed and frame rate affect other types of desired shots to create different effects. In general the author briefly informs about how adjusting these two settings can help create a better desired effect.
The author did support his main argument, but the article was short and only showed two specific examples. The evidence provided by the videos were convincing and very informative. In the future, I plan to use what I've learned from this article to make shots in my videos better and find ways to help tell the story.
