Kyle Jones: Owner - Creative Artist in Long Beach, CA

Pixel Wave is a Long Beach-based creative and social media agency. We specialize in creating mixed media content for advertising and online platforms as well as manage social media accounts for small local businesses. We've had the pleasure of working with larger companies like LEGO, Ultimate Ears (Logitech), Lytro, Holland Bicycles and many more but want to focus on local Long Beach business. We use mediums like 2D, photography, 3D, video, motion graphics for things like social media content, website animations or images, mailers, banners, flyers, wall hangs, again anything and everything. We can help any business build a strong catalog of content that we can post on your social media accounts over time (creating a "content calendar").
