Third Coast International Audio Festival
Website

Chicago's Third Coast International Audio Festival (TCF) is an organization, festival, radio show, broadcast, competition and forum which showcases a robust array of curated feature and documentary audio work and promotes audio culture for radiomakers and listeners worldwide. TCF does this on-air, on-line, and through a variety of events and conferences. Faust was retained by TCF to redesign their identity and website simultaneous to their leap to independence from Chicago Public Radio in 2009. With their website in particular, TCF wanted it to function as an easily navigated, carefully curated listening resource which would provide easy access to even the dustiest of corners of their growing audio archive. In addition, TCF wanted to use the website to better put their other resources (as curators, presenters, educators, and consultants) on par with their more commonly known assets (the radio show, broadcast, podcasts, and, yes, their archives.) Overall, TCF was looking for a sophisticated but comfortable, intuitive, warm and dynamic online experience. Faust designed a website that would laterally and simply feature their archives, competitions, festivals, events, calendar and ecommerce areas. The archives are presented as a fully searchable and sortable library, with options to customize, create playlists, comment, and tag. Faust provided concept, design, production, and project management relating to a comprehensive website redesign. (While there, you might want to "Release the pigeons.")
