Director Mark Osborne said, “Working with Shine was an incredible experience for us. They created such a richly textured and strikingly beautiful ending to our movie that exceeded our expectations in every way.”
“I wanted us to have an end credits sequence as beautiful and richly designed as the rest of our movie. The work Shine produced for us remains one of the highlights of the film for me, and never fails to make me smile,” said director John Stevenson.

"Kung Fu Panda" features Po, an enthusiastic and clumsy panda who dreams of becoming a kung fu master. Master Shifu, a wise and stern red panda, trains Po despite initial doubts. The Furious Five—Tigress, Monkey, Mantis, Viper, and Crane—are skilled warriors who support Po while showcasing unique fighting styles. Tigress, the fierce leader, is initially skeptical of Po. Tai Lung, a snow leopard, serves as the formidable villain seeking revenge.
The end credits of "Kung Fu Panda" are visually captivating, featuring stylized, comedic vignettes echoing character themes, and inspired by traditional Chinese art.
The end crawl concept is based on the scroll from the story. The Dragon Scroll is a revered artifact believed to grant limitless power. When Po opens it, he finds it blank, symbolizing that true strength comes from within. This revelation empowers Po, teaching him self-belief and inner potential are the keys to becoming the Dragon Warrior.
CeeLo Green's rendition of "Kung Fu Fighting" is amazing and fun, infusing the classic song with a modern, soulful twist. Its upbeat rhythm with CeeLo Green's incredible vocals perfectly match the film's playful and action-packed vibe, adding a lively and memorable touch to the movie's soundtrack.
Many thanks to Debra Kaufman from Studio Daily describing the incredible experience we had working with the filmmakers on Kung Fu Panda!
