SHOWRUNNER — SIGNATURE
Signature tier — motion build

Your show, in motion.

Most event sites are a flyer someone scanned. Signature is the other thing — a site that moves the way the show feels, with registration, sponsors, and schedule still doing the boring work underneath.

01 — The build

One page that does the whole weekend.

Registration at the top, schedule that people actually check on their phone at 7am in a wet parking lot, sponsor logos that earn their placement, and a gallery that gives you next year's marketing for free.

SEPTEMBER 12–14 · LINCOLN, NEBRASKA

Three days. Four hundred cars.
One place to send everybody.

Register your car — $35
Registration

Pre-register and pay online. You get a list you can sort, not a shoebox of paper forms.

Schedule

Every gate time, class, and award slot. Change it once, it changes everywhere.

Sponsors

Tiered logo wall that gives your title sponsor something worth the check.

02 — The system

Four steps, start to gate open.

01

Intake

One form. Dates, classes, fees, who's sponsoring, and the photos from last year. Fifteen minutes on your end and I have everything I need.

02

Structure

Before a single pixel: what does someone need in the first six seconds — the date, the town, and the register button. Everything else is below that.

03

Motion

This is the Signature part. Scroll-driven reveals, depth, type that arrives instead of just sitting there. Tuned so it still loads fast on fairground LTE.

04

Handoff

You see the finished site before you pay the balance. Then it goes live on your domain, with registration wired to your bank and the schedule ready to edit.

03 — What Signature adds

The standard build, with a pulse.

Everything in the Showrunner Standard tier is still in here. Signature is what goes on top — and it's the part people screenshot and send to their committee.

Scroll-driven story

Sections that build as you move through them, so the page reads like a walk through the show instead of a stack of boxes.

Depth & parallax

Real perspective — cards and layers that sit at different distances and respond to the cursor. CSS transforms, not a heavy 3D engine.

Kinetic typography

Headlines that arrive line by line. Counters that count. Small stuff, but it's the difference between "nice flyer" and "who built this?"

Still fast

No 3D library, no video background, no framework. It's one HTML file and one stylesheet, so it opens quick on a phone with two bars.

Motion that respects people

Anyone with "reduce motion" turned on gets the calm version automatically. Keyboard focus and screen readers work the same either way.

All the plumbing

Registration, payments, sponsor tiers, schedule, gallery, contact form, maps, and the search-engine setup. Motion is the finish, not the substitute.

04 — Pricing

What it runs.

Signature isn’t a separate tier — it’s a motion pass added on top of whichever build you pick. Same terms as always: 50% to start, balance at launch, and you see the finished site before that balance is due.

Signature add-on

+$0Added to your build · $900, $2,400 or $3,500+
  • Sits on top of any Showrunner build tier
  • Custom scroll story and motion system
  • 3D depth, parallax, and kinetic type
  • Online registration and payments wired to your bank

  • Reduced-motion and accessibility pass included
Add Signature to my build

So a Show Site build with Signature runs $2,400 + $1,500 = $3,900. The season plan is separate and doesn’t change.

Season plan

$0Per year · renews only if you ask
  • Hosting, domain, SSL, and backups
  • Date, schedule, and sponsor updates each season
  • Registration open and close each year
  • Photos from this year swapped in for next
Or buy it outright

Buying outright adds $900 and drops the recurring fee entirely. Changes after that run $250 a round.

05 — Questions

Before you ask.

Does all this motion slow the site down?

No. There's no 3D engine, no video background, and no framework — it's plain HTML, CSS transforms, and a small amount of JavaScript. The whole page is a couple of files. It opens faster than most flyer-style event sites, which usually load three megabytes of stock photos.

What if someone gets motion sick?

Anyone with "reduce motion" enabled on their phone or computer gets a calm version of the page automatically — everything is still there, it just doesn't move. That's built in, not an afterthought.

Can our committee still edit it?

Yes. The parts that change every year — dates, schedule, classes, sponsors, photos — are the parts you edit, and none of that touches the motion. Or the season plan covers it and you just send me the changes.

Is Signature worth it over the standard build?

Honestly, not always. If your show sells out on Facebook every year, the standard build takes your registrations and you're done. Signature is for shows that are trying to grow, court a title sponsor, or stop looking like the swap meet down the road.

How long does it take?

Longer than the standard build, because the motion has to be designed rather than dropped in. Plan on a few weeks from intake to launch, and start well before registration opens.
