Digital Domain opens art institute
I MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
The project has created an uproar among visual effects artists in Hollywood, who fear it will encourage students to work for free at Digital Domain's planned visual effects studio in West Palm Beach, Fla.
The Digital Domain Institute, which offers a three-year diploma in digital arts along with a bachelor of fine arts from Florida State University,
LOS ANGELES — Digital Domain, the award-winning effects company behind such movies as "Tron: Legacy" and the "Transformers" films, recently touted its new animation and digital arts institute as a "pioneering public-private partnership" with Florida State University's College of Motion Picture Arts.
enables students to gain realworld experience by working for college credit on some of Hollywood's top films.
Currently based at temporary offices, the institute will operate out of a 150,000-square-foot educational and digital production facility that is scheduled to open by January 2015. The site, which will include a visual effects studio, will be built on land donated by the city of West Palm Beach, which issued $15 million in tax-exempt bonds to help finance the project.

Fired host tells his side of story on 'Late Show'
LOS ANGELES — Keith Olbermann is remorseful—sort of.
Current TV, the network cofounded by former Vice President Al Gore and legal entrepreneur Joel Hyatt, sacked Olbermann last week after months of friction over his time spent on-camera, set issues and other problems.
The freshly fired host from Current TV told his side of the story on Tuesday's "Late Show with David Letterman," although it wasn't always clear how firmly his tongue was planted in cheek. He implied that he came to the network with the best intentions but was undone by its lack of resources.

Nicki Minaj translates nerves into memorable performances
LOS ANGELES — Underneath the stage before February's Super Bowl halftime show, Nicki Minaj felt an emotion she hadn't experienced in quite some time. She was really, really nervous.
Over the last three years, the young rapper had become one of the most charismatic and commercially successful stars in pop music, with a gum-snapping flow and acerbic guest rhymes that stole the show from vets such as Mariiah Carey, Kanve West and Rihanna.
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Only four months into 2012, Minaj has already headlined two of the biggest moments in live music, with her Super Bowl gig followed by an outlandish exorcism-themed Grammys set that was the talk of the telecast. Her new album, "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded," is an even more daring document of a young artist holding onto her creativity while navigating major commercial stardom.
