Is the Zapruder film a composite or an original?
James Dahl:
Having done video compositing in my lifetime I have noticed that the Zapruder film does have many indicators of heavy editing, where a longer film sequence was cut into a shorter sequence with the splice occurring when the car is behind the sign.
* The immobile background and foreground crowd who DO NOT MOVE (other footage shows the crowd doing normal crowd things, milling about, trying to see over each other, etc)
* The running fellow in the latter part of the video appears to be hand drawn in to add dynamism to the background
* There appear to be compositing errors around poles where the original background is partially visible
* The background appears to have been enlarged and are not to scale
Matt Grantham:
Dino Brugioni says it was not the original he saw. He should know don't you think
James Dahl:
This is the real question for me, why would they cut out the middle of the Zapruder film?

Don't forget that at the beginning there is the Start/STOP/Start = A GAP in the Film. Sitzman said during her Tink Thompson interview for his "Six Seconds In Dallas", that their elevated position on the pedestal permitted them to see the JFK Limo/Motorcade coming down Houston St. and then turning onto Elm. There is No Legit reason for the GAP at the beginning of the Current Zapruder Film..
James Dahl:
The only reason I can think of is the gap shows the parade being re-routed from Main Street (the intended route) to Elm Street (and directly below Oswald's position)
