Her Campus (HC): So, appropriately enough, how did we meet?
Herbert Felix (HF): You stood out. So when the opportunity presented itself I took it.
HC: There you told me about your first film, “Vicious Cycle,” and how you’d like to work with me on future projects.
HF: Correct.
HC: Sum up “Vicious Cycle” in three words.
HF: Intense, intimate and relevant.
HC: Your film is very sexy and real. How do you think the audience received the message of the film? Were you satisfied? What would you change, if anything?
HF: For the most part, based on feedback, people got it. That was over a year ago, and it could always be better, but you have to know when to let things go and move on.

HF: Filmmaking as a whole encompasses all of those things, so filmmaking.
HC: Who is your biggest influence?
HF: My momentary muse.

HC: What is your ideal date?
HF: I enjoy the night, intimate settings and good conversations.
HC: Favorite movie?
HF: I have too many, there’d be a list. I can name a few directors whose films would be on that list, though. Godard, Malick, Fincher, Hitchcock, Nolan, Affleck, Iñárritu, Linklater, Refn and more.
HC: Favorite band, artist or song?
HF: It varies; I listen to film scores mostly.
