The College of Communication and Fine Arts’ new website, http://cfa.lmu.edu, premiered Jan. 18.
The redesigned homepage for the College of Communication and Fine Arts
It showcases the college and the work of its departments, programs and the Laband Art Gallery. Each has its own set of web pages that can be accessed from the CFA homepage. The new website will provide a platform with the latest in technology, allowing CFA to present the work of students and faculty via slide shows, as well as audio and video presentations.
The six-month redesign was led by LMU’s Web, New Media and Design Office in close collaboration with CFA Dean Barbara Busse and faculty. The project incorporated market research, focus groups and surveys, as well as analysis of existing use, to understand the needs of CFA’s audience and its departments and programs.
The new design reflects the school’s vision and matches well with the university’s award-winning www.LMU.edu.
In addition to providing a foundation for audio/video content development, the site features new areas tailored to its various audiences: prospective students, alumni and current students. In conjunction with the redesign, CFA is developing a more significant presence in MYLMU to serve current students, faculty and staff.
