What are TV Production Ships?
TV production ships are vessels used as filming locations for different entertainment projects. These ships provide a flexible and mobile set, letting filmmakers shoot scenes with the ocean or coastlines as backdrops. They are equipped with facilities for cast and crew, including living quarters, dining and lounge areas, and storage for filming gear. TV production ships are often used in genres needing a maritime setting, such as action-adventure series, reality shows involving sea voyages, or commercials looking for an exotic touch.
