10 Facts You Should Know About 「Far」

1. First ever MV by Gin to be recorded in Russia—while being his first Umineko MV.
2. First published double ocarina performance by Gin. The "Truth Seeker" debuted in this MV as a protag.
3. 「Far」 in its entirety was filmed in one day. This was thanks to Rustam giving advice and filming a few indoor shots, as well as Cybergrind heroically recording the outdoor scenes while fending off mosquitoes and laughing a lot.
4. When posting this MV on his Twitter, Gin accidentally tagged the wrong zts (composer of the original "Far"). (*´_ゝ｀)
5. As they had little to no equipment on hand during the shoot, Gin and the crew resorted to using wood as to stabilize the camera.
6. The tea seen in this MV is a pleasant cup of black tea with rose petals. In fact, it is licensed Umineko Saku Tea.
7. 「Far」 is arguably Gin's most vintage-sounding Umineko no Naku Koro ni cover.
8. In the most basic sense, the plot of the MV was inspired by the name of the original track. That is how the filming location was decided. That is where the crew went until they got hungry.
9. 「Far」 is Gin's first MV to receive a custom logo and second to receive a vectorized version of it. The first MV that got a vector logo was Fishy Aroma.
10. Out of the first three Umineko MVs, 「Far」 was the most stressful one to film. Why? Imagine having to walk on a concrete sidewalk while holding and passionately playing a fragile purple clay double ocarina. Meanwhile, a cameraman is practically glued to your side (no lens!) and you have to take care not to trip over his feet.
