To be a Mr. Gay Europe producer is not for everyone – for someone the requirements are to touch!
If you thought being a Mr. Gay Europe Delegate is touch you should take a look at the requirements and the standard the National Mr. Gay Europe producers need to meet.
The Mr. Gay organization gets a lot of questions on what it takes to be an organizer or a producer of a National Mr. Gay competition. From 2010 anyone who wants to send a Delegate to Mr. Gay Europe needs to sign a license agreement with the Mr. Gay organization. That makes the person, the organization or company an official Licensee.
In order for the different Delegates around Europe to know what they should ask from their local organizers we publish the most important points in the agreement in this article.
The most important point of them all: By signing the License Agreement the Licensee guarantees to in a fair and transparent process to pick a national Delegate for the annual final of Mr. Gay Europe. The Licensee guarantees to treat all Contestants with dignity and respect, to give them a chance to shine and to be able to share their visions, thoughts and personality with the public. The Licensee agrees that the competition is to be more that merely a beauty pageant.
The Licensee guarantees that no one of the Contestant will be asked to do or to take part in any activities that are in conflict with their personal belief and moral standards.
The Licensee guarantees that frontal nudity, striptease, lap dance, the promotion of illegal drugs, steroids and other controlled substances and pornography will not, in any way, be a part of the national competition as a whole nor the National Final Show specifically.
The Licensee guarantees that the National Final Show will be produced in such way that it comes across to the public as stylish, tasteful and significant.
The Licensee guarantees to prepare the national winner/title holder for the international events, to make sure he gets all the necessary travel documents (tickets, visa and travel insurance) and that he shows up at the events on time.
If the national winner/title holder for any reason should not be able to attend the international finals and annual event, the licensee guarantees to send the 1st runner up, 2nd runner up etc.
The Licensee guarantees the Delegate read and understands the content of the handbook and prepares for the international events accordingly and to comply with the preparations listed in the handbook regarding costume, clothes etc. The handbook is sent out four weeks prior to the European final.
The Licensee guarantees to let the Delegate complete a professional photo session according to directions given by Licensor regarding motive and styling. These directions may differ from year to year. The photo session is to be organized no later than 10 days after the winner / title holder is named.
The photos taken are going to be used to marked and promote both the national and international finals. The Licensee has to make sure that the Licensor can make use of the photo material for any commercial and/or promotional use free of charge.
The Licensee is set up a web page to market and promote the national competition. The web page is to contain information on the international events, the rules and regulations, a mission statement, info on the organization and the event’s logo according to information and material supplied by the Licensor.
