Julien Christian Lutz, better known as Little X, X or Director X, is a Canadian music video director. He also has his own clothing line X Fit. He was born and raised near Toronto, Ontario, and is of Trinidadian and Swiss descent. 


Director X is known mostly for his directing in many amazing music videos, for stars including; Rihanna, Drake, Iggy Azalea, Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber and Chris Brown. 




His trademark is tweaking the letterbox format; instead of just using black bars on the top and bottom of the frame to frame the image, many videos by X actually feature the bars opening vertically or horizontally to reveal the video and closing vertically or horizontally at the end, like a letter box. 

Director X's Style:
Director x's music videos are very contemporary, they are ones that are likely to appear on music channels such as MTV. This has contributed to his fame and success as a director as his videos are very well know. Such as the music video for 'Promiscuous' by Nelly Furtado and Timberland, this song was at number 1 in the UK charts for 3 consecutive weeks. 
His music videos are usually very easy to spot, due to their high budget and his use of beat editing and quick sharp cuts to match the pace of the music. 

Director X manages to bring the same energetic attitude to every video he directs, he can achieve through all genres of music but mainly; rap, hip-hop and R&B music. For artists such as Drake, R-Kelly and Rihanna. 

In all of the music video's that he directs, the artist performs and is the main focus of the video.
