Filmmaker and comic writer Christopher Cantwell is a creative force. In a conversation with Content People’s creator and host, Meredith Farley, he talks about creativity, content, inspiration and his work on projects like “Halt and Catch Fire,” “Lodge 49,” and his foray into comic books.

In episode 17 of Content People, I chat with Christopher Cantwell. Chris is a writer, director and filmmaker who, along with his writing partner, Chris Rodgers, catapulted to success with their hit series “Halt and Catch Fire.”

After “Halt and Catch Fire,” Chris dove into projects such as “Lodge 49” and “Paper Girls.” And he also returned to an old passion: comic books. With comic writing credits including “Star Wars: Obi-Wan” and “Iron Man,” Christopher knows how to humanize heroes and regale readers. Suffice it to say he’s a gold mine of creativity.

Join us as I pick Christpher’s brain about:

• Pitch meetings.
• The writing process.
• Working with other creative teams.
• Inspiration and the muse.
• The term “content” and its impact on creatives.
