Burning and scratching film negatives to create a distressed image @filmismorefun
Burning and scratching film negatives to create a distressed image  @filmismorefun
Uploaded April 2020 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago
Today I was experimenting with some creative ways (maybe a bit on the extreme side) to alter and distress my film negatives. I used matches and a hobby knife to warp, scratch, and outline objects in my images.

This is my first time trying this, so if you have any pointers, ideas, suggestions, etc- definitely hit me up!

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency go watch 'The Art of Photography' (love that show). These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv clicker.
