Can't say I'm spotting Nix to be honest Duncan, but what I did spot was the lamp-post I'd mentioned seen in Nix:




Just from eye-balling it, judging from the relative positions of the lamp-post and the bottom of the stairs in the distance, I'd say Nix was filming from a position slightly west of Hughes (I also got the impression Nix was stood slightly west of Bronson as well). Nix's position was on the south side of Main Street, slightly west of the south peristyle and when we look on Roberdeau's 'worthless' map, that is exactly where he is positioned.
Just returning briefly to the general subject of this thread, I've always wondered what the point of altering the Zapruder film was. To hide evidence of a second gunman? If so, how could "they" leave in JFK's 'back and to the left' head and body movement? Surely any right-minded person would see the effects of a shot from the right front, which is exactly what happened when the film was finally made public. Surely this is the clearest evidence of a conspiracy there could be, what's the point of any alterations whilst leaving this glaring give-away in there.
I find it baffling that those fighting hardest to show the Z-film was altered are those who believe there was a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. The Z-film is the best evidence there is of a conspiracy yet it is undermined by those who wish to show the alterations are evidence of conspiracy.
Go figure.

He's not there.

This tells me he's either hidden from view in front of the 'north peristyle' (see Roberdeau's map) or he's somewhere on the south side of Main Street, possibly near the 'south peristyle'.
In the Nix film there's a moment, just after Hill has managed to get a proper foothold, that the limo passes behind a lamp-post.
This tells me he's not in front of the north peristyle as there's no lamp-posts there for the limo to pass behind. Therefore he must be somewhere on the south side of Main Street.
That really narrows it down.

Alterations to the Zfilm, if proven, are not evidence of a "conspiracy", just evidence of alteration.

Blue: Nix | Yellow: Bronson | Green: Zapruder | Purple: Muchmore   (Dale K. Myers)
Nix doesn't start filming until after Z312.
It's impossible to know where he was at that time.

How can you be so wrong over something so basic?
Surely you must have seen the Nix film.
How do you feel 'qualified' to take any part in a discussion where you have no grasp of the fundamentals?
Am I missing something here?
In the opening post of this thread there is a video synching the Zapruder and Nix films. Take a few minutes out of your day and check it out (just a suggestion)

Someone's video on YouTube is not proof of when, and where, Nix started filming, nor how Nix and Zapruder line up, frame wise. It's just..someone's idea.

Getting back to the OP, we have a short film created by Mr O'meara.
Since Nix was at least 50ft - probably much more - from the limo when filming, and Mr O'meara places his camera inches from his objects, even adjusting for scale does not make Mr O'meara's film relevant to the Nix film discussion.
