I don't want to dissuade you from experimenting, but unless you are hell-bent on or solely capable of shooting, developing and printing and/or scanning 35mm film only, this is a real case of diminishing returns.
Let's say you're projecting a 6x6 family slide, on the screen in front of everybody.
Now, trim the screen to half the width and about 40% of the height, and voila! You are now seeing what a 135 peephole through a typical 120 format image looks like.
If it's a 120 camera, I would just shoot 120 or 220 in it. For better image quality than typical 35mm, shoot a Fuji TX-1 or Hasselblad X-Pan.
I mean no offense, of course. But it's simply not logical. Just like the "panorama" masks that used to cover a 135 frame, in the 1990s. Users were wasting film and image circle on that gimmick.
When I processed those things at a 1-hour lab, people thought it was sort of cool, until I showed them the cropped negatives. Then they'd swear off that dial, forever.
