MEDIA POLICY
CLRG Media Policy - Oireachtas Rince na hÉireann
Any form of unauthorised photography which has the
capability to capture a dancer’s image whilst in motion,
using electronic or manual means e.g. mobile phone,
standard camera, video camcorder, commercial film, with
or without enhancement, is expressly forbidden.
An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha has appointed an official
photographer for Oireachtas Rince na hÉireann, who will
take photographs and videos of competitors, competitions
and presentations. Such photographs and videos may be
subsequently used for the marketing and promotional
purposes of the organisation including the publication of
such photographs on the official website www.clrg.ie and
CLRG social media outlets.
An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha may also appoint other
agents during the Championships for special promotional
projects and reserves the right to permit suitably accredited
photo-journalists to take photographs on a case by case
basis. Should any dancer or dancer’s parent or guardian
wish to be excluded from any of these photographs, please
contact any member of the Oireachtas Committee with
relevant details.
PLEASE NOTE: Other than the photographs taken by the
official photographer, authorised agents of An Coimisiún
le Rincí Gaelacha or accredited photo journalists, all
photographs captured at the event including images of
competitors and presentations may only be taken for
personal use. They may not be redistributed, sold, lent or
passed on to third parties. They may also not be used for
commercial purposes or used in any publication or posted
to any website without the express written permission of An
Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha and the parents or guardians
of all dancers included in any picture.
PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENT will not be
permitted inside the competition rooms with the exception
of individuals that have a valid CLRG photo pass. Attendees
are not allowed to bring zoom lenses greater than 70mm
inside the dance events, and no individuals will be granted
access to take photographs on or near the stage during the
competitions.
MEDIA APPLICATIONS: Accredited journalists may apply for
event access and photo passes by contacting the Public
Relations Officer at pro@clrg.ie. All applicants will be
required to complete the necessary paperwork and be
compliant with our child protection policy and all rules of
CLRG.
Ignoring or failing to comply with the above will lead to expulsion from the premises.
