Producers, Marilyn Petrokubi and Rob Lieberman of TimeSteps have done it again. They have explored new waters with this animated music video featuring original characters for Walleye and the Fish Band.

This is one component of a 360 degree marketing campaign for the USDA-APHIS to broaden awareness about a disease that is killing the fish in the Great Lakes. VHS disease, (viral hemorrhagic septicemia) has decimated 17 species of fish already, and while it is not contagious to humans, it is severely affecting the aquaculture of the region.

This animated music video features the band singing "Help Save Our Waters" with lyrics suggesting tips anglers and boaters can take to stop VHS disease. These tips will help save native fish populations and ensure that families will continue to enjoy fishing and boating on America's waters. It's a fun cartoon for all ages with an educational spin.
