Graphic Design | Eric Hersey | Ohio Valley Web Design & Digital Marketing

I have been creating logos and design work since MS Paint. I was good then and I am even better now. Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator have been used on a daily basis since 2001. Although I am no longer altering my favorite bands cover art, I still get great enjoyment in creating new digital works of art.

Whether you need help laying out a print ad (yeah, I also know InDesign), need a logo made for your fantasy football team, or are looking to get a giant billboard on Route 7, I can help with quality graphic design.

Logos

Logos are everywhere. You can't walk outside without being smacked in the face with a few hundred logos. You can't even walk inside without being inundated with thousands of logos. Millions of logos are lined up to talk with you right now. Make sure your logo sticks out.

Style Guides

"Give me a good color scheme or give me death". Patrick Henry said that. No, not that Patrick Henry. The Patrick Henry I know from Orlando. The guy that puts together those pretty branding guides for location businesses on I4. Yeah, he taught me everything I know about style guides and branding.

Print

Don't get me wrong, for the longest time I didn't understand bleeds. I made images too large. I made images too small. I created in the wrong resolution. Do we use RGB or CMYK??? Let my learning experiences save you time and money.

Digital Graphics

#1 Eating, #2 Walking #3 Taking #4 Making Graphics on a Computer. That is my shortlist of items I have been doing the longest. I can't say I was placed on this planet to make digital graphics, but no one has told me that I wasn't placed on this planet to make digital graphics. Think about it.

Stock Photography

I know a guy that can get you real good stock photography. Let me jot down his address on this small, crumbled up piece of paper. Hold on. I am that guy. Actually, we can make you 'stock' photography. Like - good enough graphics that you think someone paid for them but they are in locations people know and relate to. The good stuff.

Optimization

If you are putting that image on the web, we need to get rid of some of those pixels. Let's bring that graphic into the shop and let me work my magic. A little bit here, a little bit there, voilà! A perfectly optimized image!

Community, Parks & Recreation Website

Informational hierarchy might sound fancy but it's not really fancy, it's difficult. How to organize over 100 pages on a website is a goal I took and ran with it.

Bombshell Custom CMS Website

Making a pretty website is not always the main objective. Although this custom CMS website worked perfectly for me, it wasn't the best option for the client. Find out what lessons I learned.

Colorful, Multi-Product Website

Even clients from Pittsburgh choose the Ohio Valley for affordable and creative solutions. When I got to work with a paint company, I stayed within the lines.

Real Estate Attorney Website

When you don't know, you don't know. I know the web and my client knew law. We both knew he had to get out of that Hibu website and save some money.

Single Location Commerce Website

Dealing with national brands can be a huge positive. Learning how to leverage these national brands to get local website traffic is difficult, but we know how to get the job done.

Helpful, Informational Website Design

Working with build-it-yourself website tools seem like a great idea for a company - until you have specific objectives to accomplish. Wix.com was not the answer for this client.

Maybe you would prefer a nice PDF of my work sent directly to your email.

I'm not really doing that kind of thing, but you can make that request.

Back in the day I would have a pretty cool graphic with an up arrow or something. Now we just use web graphics (like the one to your right).
