This video was my senior thesis project. This unique spot is “coined” the Crying Bench. It has a history of being a unique spot on campus where people experience a lot of emotions. I wanted to encapsulate that on 16mm combined with digital. Everyone was given a unique experience I wanted to document.

Hype video for the 2026 season for the Men’s Tennis team. I featured their return player Lambert Ruland as the main focus. While show casing new faces, and determined Veterans Oliver Tarvet, Neo Niedner, & Stian Klaassen.

One of my child hood best friends wedding video. I had the unique privilege to be in it as a groomsman and a videographer, which came with its unique challenges.

Hi I’m Justin Livingston, I’m a father, Navy veteran, and University of San Diego alum. My journey behind the lens began in 2023 during a creative internship with USD Athletics, which led me to minor in Visual Arts with an emphasis in Video Art.

Most of my work is rooted in documenting the intensity of sports. I’ve had the privilege of shooting for over 17 Division I teams, capturing the raw, high-stakes moments that define the game. Beyond digital, I also have experience working with the unique texture of 16mm film.

Currently, I’m building Just Living Media, a creative agency I co-founded with one of my closest friends from the military. Whether it’s a wedding, a portrait session, or a complex creative project, we’re here to bring your vision to life. The majority of my work is shot on the Sony Alpha system on either a FX30, A7Cii, or A7Siii.

One of my favorite edits I’ve produced as an Intern working for USD Athletics creative video team. A tribute to the Seniors for USD Volleyball. I love the more cinematic edits to sports.

Mental Health Awareness video I made in collaboration with USD’s Softball Team featuring McKenna Braegelmann. This video was filmed for the Words I Wish I heard project.
