'recording film' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'psychiatrist to stop' is the wordplay.
'psychiatrist' becomes 'shrink' (informal term for a psychiatrist).
'to stop' becomes 'wrap' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'shrink'+'wrap'='SHRINKWRAP'
