Shutter speed is how fast the shutter of the camera opens and closes - thus allowing more or less light in. The quicker the shutter opens and closes the less light is let in, and the less motion blur there is. The typical rule is that when you're filming something your shutter speed should be 1/two times your frame rate. Since I will be shooting my film at 30 fps I will make my shutter speed 1/60 so that the motion blur of the video looks natural.
As you can see in the example above, when the man jumps there is motion blur in the photo on the right. Though this may not be good for photos, you typically want a natural looking motion blur in your video as it make it look more realistic. When trying to properly expose the video later its important I take this into account to ensure that the video I capture looks natural.
