BiMAC #1 - Police Show Animation Contest

This is a new topic, standing for Bricks in Motion Animation Challenge/Contest. Although this necessarily isn't a bricksinmotion.com contest, this topic will cover all animation contests that have been shown on bricksinmotion.com's forums.
Today's post covers a contest  hosted by David M Pickett, creator of The NightlyNewsAtNine on youtube, and co-creator of website 'The Set Bump' formerly brickanimation.com, a fellow brickfilming review website and blog. He made a fake commercial for a non-existant TV show, and encouraged fans to get involved. He had a total of 10 entries. Now, I'm going to break it down for you.
