They would have copied Zapruder's film several times over, masking different portions
Except the original still exists. You are talking about a process that manipulates prints, not the original. Experts can determine if they are looking at the camera original or a print. We still have the original film that went through the camera. It's in the National archives.
This was fun. I enjoyed learning about the multi-plane camera
But may I say it's an absolute Fantasia.
The elaborate production you speak of doesn't match the chain of evidence and I can see many issues with this theory.
Zapruder had the film developed and he and a few others had viewed it IN DALLAS within an HOUR of getting to the lab. There was absolutely no time to make alterations.
What happened
First, Zapruder, a colleague, a cop, a secret service man and a reporter tried to get the film developed at the Dallas Morning News, and then at a television station WFAA, but they had the wrong equipment. They did 16mm in black and white, not 8mm color film. They refuse to do it cuz they thought they might damage it.
So then they went to Eastman Kodak’s plant in Dallas which was out by the airport. And there a hour after they arrived, they watched the film with some of folks who worked at Kodak.
So your idea does just not work.
Kodak didnt make copies so they went the Jamieson Film Company, to make 3 copies.
Disney made animated films. So if you wanted a separate background, you just drew a new background.
Where would get the other copies of the film to multi-plane?
For your theory to work, there needed to be a multi-plane camera in Dallas that day. And technicians to work it. All ready to go. Waiting on standby when you find out some guy named Abraham Z has footage.
Because remember anyone could have taken a picture or film that day. And they did, there was something like 30 films made that day.
The Zapruder film is just the most complete and had the best angle.
So your multi-plane camera, manipulated film now has to match other people's films. Like this one shot by Homer Nix.
That shows the assassination from a different angle and even shows Abraham Zapruder in the background. That's independent confirmation because the FBI didn't get their hands on the Nix film until December.
The film went to Washington DC to be edited. Disney invented the multi-plane camera but by the 1960s the CIA or the FBI could easily have had their own multi-plane camera at their disposal.
When the film was edited into what we see today, it could have been projected onto a screen. The fakers could simply film this "new version" of the assassination using a Brownie camera identical to Zapruder's.
Kodak's 8mm film cameras did not capture images in sharp focus. The blurriness of a second generation film would pass for first generation, and the piece of film would give all the appearance of never having been edited as it was not edited, but merely filmed off a screen (or perhaps copied in a Moviola device.) But the Zapruder film we are allowed to see is not the film Zapruder actually shot.
Zapruder was paid well by Life magazine for the film, and his family was paid even better decades later by the federal government. Their silence was purchased.

By 8 p.m .Zapruder had the original and a copy, and handed the other two copies to the Secret Service. https://youtu.be/56yeSMi_Qzg?si=HcONy2ufj7Iv3ecX
There's many problems with scenario.
