Little X
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Little X, (born Julien Christian Lutz in 1975), is a Trinidadian-Canadian music video director. A protégé of Hype Williams, Little X has been noted for his high-budget, visually distinctive videos for popular music singles, including Mystikal's "Shake That Ass" and "Danger! (Been So Long)", "Georgy Porgy" by Eric Benét & Faith Evans, No Sex in the Champagne Room by Chris Rock and Gerald Levert and Usher's "U Got It Bad" & "U Don't Have to Call", among many others. One of his trademarks is tweaking the letterbox format; instead of simply using black bars on the top and bottom of the frame to frame the image, many videos by Little X feature the bars opening vertically to reveal the video and closing vertically at the end.
Currently directing vampire feature "Razorwire". His most recent music video is the multi-platinum rapper The Game's new video "Lets Ride". He is currently represented by HSI Productions.
Also goes by the names Mr. X and Lil' X
He attended both Mayfield Secondary School and North Park Secondary School in Brampton, Ontario.
