               GAY ENTERTAINMENT MULTIMEDIA ANNOUNCES  
          THE LAUNCH OF "GAY DAZE," A GAY ORIENTED WEB-SITE

First Gay/Lesbian Episodic Drama on the World Wide Web Adds Spice to                  Internet Programming  

Los Angeles, CA [http://www.gaydaze.com] -  Gay Entertainment Multimedia has
announced the launch of "Gay Daze," a gay/lesbian drama, adding to the diversity of
Internet entertainment programming.   

"The web is a perfect place to launch a gay/lesbian soap opera," states Arlene Krantz,
Executive Producer of the on-line site and President of G.E.M.  "A large part of the
gay community is already on the web and has been for years, so we felt that there
was already a large audience out there for our site."

As the show's introduction states, "The setting is Los Angeles, the city of angels and
devils in disguise."  In its midst, six friends:  Greg, the tortured artist; Eric, the good
doctor, and his lover, Drew, a caterer; Fran, the x-gen lesbian; Mike, tough, straight,
and fresh from New York; and Hugo the queen of gossip and "coffee talk" at his cafe,
Mocha Daze.  Lovers, colleagues and friends, their lives are interwoven in the fabric
of the gay, L.A. lifestyle.

"Our goal is to make this site innovative and entertaining," states Helen Mendoza,
Producer and Creative Director of the show.  "We've got a sophisticated audience,
and they're looking for fun and inventive programming on the web."

With new entries from three or four of the characters every day, "Gay Daze"  is aimed
at becoming a complete, interactive site.  The site features color graphics and
photographs, as well as a chance to send e-mail to each of the characters.  Future
story plans include more interactive plots where the audience can determine the
direction of the drama.

"We have several other special features planned for the site," says Jeb Seibel,
Designer and Webmaster of "Gay Daze."  "We're getting ready to launch a custom-designed web-chat, and we're developing an area called "THE GALLERY," where
visitors can view our special collection of photographs among other things.

"GAY DAZE" is produced by Gay Entertainment Multimedia in Los Angeles, CA,
which produces entertainment programming targeted to the gay and lesbian
community.
