DreamWorks Animation, Chinese partners bet big on 'Kung Fu Panda 3'
On the 16th floor of a Shanghai office building, dozens of fresh-faced young animators are studying painting, sculpting and acting.
They're participating in film-appreciation workshops — Woody Allen's "Match Point" was a recent pick — and learning the latest software tools. Teaching them via video connections were some of the most experienced artists in Los Angeles, veterans who brought to life hits such as "Shrek" and "Madagascar."
But it won't take years for these newbies, many of them recent art-school grads, to get their big break working on a Hollywood blockbuster. As employees of Oriental DreamWorks, they're already staff artists on "Kung Fu Panda 3," set for release in January.

Ballet stars talk Tony-nominated 'An American in Paris' and Broadway leap
It's been a Broadway tradition for more than half a century: Before the opening of every musical, a member of the chorus is presented with the Gypsy Robe, a treasured dressing gown embellished with hand-sewn mementos of previous musicals. When the cast of "An American in Paris" gathered onstage for the ritual hand-off, performers making their Broadway debuts were asked to step forward. Almost everyone did, recalls Robert Fairchild, the show's Tony-nominated star.
"It was so cool," he says. "It was just so crazy. We were all doing it for the first time."

U2 at the Forum: 5 thoughts on the band's final show
The rattling and humming has ended, at least for now.
U2 wrapped up its extended stay in Los Angeles on Wednesday night with a sold-out show at the Forum, the band’s fifth at the Inglewood arena before its Innocence and Experience tour heads east, to Denver and beyond.
Wednesday’s concert was actually the last of six in L.A., including U2’s visit last week to the comparatively minuscule Roxy. But sustained exposure to his fans’ adoration has never satisfied Bono’s appetite for more, of course. So Wednesday the frontman sauntered onstage with the Forum’s house lights still on, the better to see 17,000-something Angelenos cheer his arrival once more.
