Hi All,
I'm trying to take some lofi shots with my instant cameras, I have a polaroid 670 and I have a holga with an instant back on the way.

Can anyone tell me if there are ways to add grain to the film? I know if you warm up colour impossible project film it's gets lovely warm purpley colours. Heat doesn't seem to treat the 600 B&W film the same.

Are there better ways to manipulate film if you use the peel apart film? like pushing or pulling the exposure?

Can I speed up the expiration of the film by warming it up? I'm going to experiment when it arrives, but it would be nice to have some information.

You can manipulate the film in many ways - but I think it will not increase the grain. Pushing or pulling will not make difference in grain size. If you are using normal negative, and then you enlarge 10x - you can see grain increase/change, but in instant print I don't think so.

About manipulation techniques on instant prints - I have seen on impossible page many useful tips.
