Eric Clapp's the Fort Worth filmmaker who curates the Bobbie Wygant Archive, which has given us much to look at in recent months. But he's also the producer of director Coleman Anderson's short film 4 X 4 Camaro, the tale of a local father and son who, with the aid of "beer and tools," married a Chevy S-10 and a Camaro. Last night, the doc -- which garnered more than 1,000 look-sees following its posting to The Ticket's website last month -- took top prize in a shorts competition at the Texas Theatre. Which is plenty good reason to share it here.
