TV Production Company Searches for Multi-Generational Fishing Family

July 25, 2015 — Is fishing in your blood? Have you been raised on the ocean with a “fish or die” mentality? Are you a hardworking commercial fishing family determined to keep your way of life alive? If so an award winning production company developing a documentary reality series about multi-generational fishing families is looking for you.

Relativity Media, a global media company engaged in multiple aspects of content production and distribution, including movies, television, fashion, sports, digital and music, is currently in the first stage of developing a documentary series about a multigenerational family-run commercial fishing business which would explore the challenges and triumphs faced in today’s day and age.

“We are open to any kind of offshore fishing, in any area of the US but I’m particularly interested in finding a family in the Gulf coast region”, Andrea McHugh a Development Producer with Relativity Media/Press Start Productions told Gulf Seafood News. “We develop and produce movies, documentaries and TV series for networks like Nat Geo, Discovery Channel, History Channel and many others. In an ideal world, We’d like to find a family commercial fishing business where more than two generations are still actively working.”

According to McHugh, the series will celebrate American fishing families and give a birds eye view into the immense dedication they have to their craft and each other.
