Frank Guo

Head of Primary & Middle School Health & PE Department, Middle School Health & PE Teacher, Advisor

Graduated from the University of the West of Scotland with a Bachelor's degree in Business Analytics, I chose a career in sports over finance after graduation, which I prefer. With over ten years of teaching experience, I have taught at the Canadian International School, Dongcheng Physical Education School, and Chaoyang Physical Education School. Later, I became a middle school physical education teacher at Tsinghua Affiliated High School International Division and served as the head of the physical education department for both junior and senior high schools at the Moonshot School.

There is only one goal and task for me at MSA: to make every learner love sports and enjoy life.

I enjoy motorcycles, and sports, especially swimming, movies, music, and exploring unknown fields.

I hold relevant certifications including a high school physical education teacher qualification, national professional lifeguard qualification, national professional swimming coach qualification, and national level three swimming referee certificate.

Capturing the trajectory of movement under slow-motion lenses

Disciplines/Subjects: Health and Sports & Visual Arts Key Themes: Slow motion and movement trajectory. Scientific Research and Artistic Presentation Biomechanical Analysis: Slow-motion footage can be utilized in biomechanical studies to scrutinize muscle activity and force transmission during movements. For instance, when examining the batting trajectory in baseball, slow-motion can capture the muscle contractions and the path of the movement, providing a foundation for scientific training. Data Recording and Analysis: Slow-motion can record detailed data of movements for subsequent analysis and research. For example, in track and field training, it can document an athlete's running posture and stride frequency, assisting coaches in devising more scientific training plans. Visual Effects Presentation: Slow-motion enhances visual effects, enabling students to more intuitively comprehend the physical processes of movements. Display of Action Details: Slow-motion can clearly reveal complex actions and movement trajectories, allowing the audience to appreciate every detail of the action. For example, in action films, slow-motion is often used to showcase stunts and fight scenes, intensifying visual impact. Aesthetic of Movement: Slow-motion can transform ordinary actions into visually appealing experiences with artistic beauty. For example, slow-motion footage of dance or sports movements can highlight the grace and power of motion. Students will take burst photographs of their peers' swinging motion, stitch each frame together in photoshop as a work of chronophotography. Through the process, they will observe the continuous motion of sport and transform it into colorful visual languages.
