The story of Jackie Galloway — who suddenly disappeared in 1991 from her apartment in Sarasota, Florida — is equally a mystery and tragedy: While police quickly discovered her body, bound and bloody, it took them much longer to locate her killer and his motive.
The investigation, which is the focus of the next episode of People Magazine Investigates airing Monday, Nov. 21, on Investigation Discovery, featured a shifting cast of possible suspects; evidence of horrific violence; a speculative link to the Gainesville Ripper serial killer, who murdered college students not far away; and a curious connection to the Patricia Cornwell thriller Postmortem about a killer called “Mr. Nobody.

The 1991 murder of Jackie Galloway in Sarasota, Florida, has several mysteries: Why was the killer drawn to her, specifically? How much pain did she endure? What exactly happened to her after she vanished from her apartment one June afternoon — the day before her body was found, traumatized and bound by cords?
One mystery, perhaps, ties the others together: How much inspiration for the crime was drawn from a Patricia Cornwell crime novel? The man who ultimately pleaded no contest in Galloway’s murder, John Waterman, admitted to owning a copy of Cornwell’s book Postmortem and reading parts of it.

One of the essential questions that arise when a director decides to make a film is which lens is the best lens to tell a certain story. It may seem like a minor detail in the filmmaking process, but Chicago filmmaker Jeremy Pinckert has put together a video comparing different kinds of Red Dragon Visual Lens--and it's an important watch. With Pinckert, Daufenbach Camera, Production Company Explore Media, Cinematographer Jamieson Mulholland, Producer Dave Wingate, Camera Assistant John Waterman, Editor Michael Dicken and Colorist Kelly Armstrong collaborated to put together an unofficial professional digital lens comparison guide for directors. In the video, which inadvertently takes the form of an art-house film (watch a hipster drink bottled water!), the team used Daufenbach’s Epic-m Red Dragon 6K sensor (captured in 5K) to capture the image. They also used 50mm as the base focal length, in both zooms and primes, and for the one lens.
