In this video, I apply the scientific method to different variables that affect how a Polaroid will look after development. By applying what was observed in this video to your own Polaroid shoots you should see a significant increase in the amount of "keepers" you will get from a film pack. You will be able to avoid color shifts and get maximum contrast out of your photos.
Development is affected by temperature and time, and the overall photos are affected by subject-to-background distance and exposure compensation. These factors are tested so that you can see the results without wasting your precious film and time.
This video also covers some history and information about Polaroids, which will help you better understand the Polaroid system.
