Film (I used Kodak Gold 200, but it really doesn’t matter.)
Tape
Saran Wrap
Scissors (optional)
1. Cut or tear out a small piece of saran wrap big enough to cover the inner window of your camera.
2. Crumple it, squish it, stretch it, do whatever you want to get the desired effect.
3. Tape it into your camera. The more you stretch it, the more lines appear in your photos.
4. Load your film as usual and shoot!
5. Develop your photos and see what you got:
(Next time, I’ll probably stretch it more to get more lines)

@stratski I thought they did too! I'm assuming its because it doesn't actually obstruct the lens, just makes patterns on the film.
Thanks everyone else :)
@kneehigh85 Haha that's interesting, I've always thought different names for things in different countries was cool to hear!
Nice work! I had thought of doing this but I thought the shots would come out blurry or cloudy. @kneehigh85 - yeah! We call it "cling wrap" or "Glad wrap" in Australia ("Glad" is a brand name that is synonymous with cling wrap).

In England we call saran wrap "cling film" and I have always thought how funny that sounds!
