Synopsis

J.Viewz performs "Far Too Close" in a stylized world of fog, colored lights, window blinds and stark studio spaces. Around him, two male figures move through a series of increasingly energetic dance sequences, turning the song's feeling of emotional pressure and unwanted closeness into physical choreography. The video shifts between cool, controlled poses and explosive movement, blending retro pop imagery with surreal visual effects. Its polished, deliberately theatrical look recalls the high-concept music videos of the 1980s while keeping the electronic track at the center.

Factoids & Trivia

  • The video was released in June 2013 alongside the 2013 edit of "Far Too Close." The song had originally appeared on J.Viewz's 2011 album, rivers and homes.
  • Its visual language was described as an affectionate tribute to 1980s music videos, particularly the dance-driven energy associated with Footloose. The production also evokes the polished pop atmosphere of the era and includes modern visual-effects work.
  • J.Viewz is the stage name of Jonathan Dagan, an Israeli-born electronic musician based in New York. He wrote and produced the track himself.
  • The production company behind the video was EGG. Gal Keret produced it, with Eitan Hatuka serving as director of photography and Gal Muggia handling the edit.
  • Doug Lethern and Daniel Gal appear as the lead performers alongside Dagan.
  • The visual effects were created by Tal Baltuch, while Natalie Feldsman handled the art direction and Damien Acevedo completed the color grading.
  • A separate 2013 promotional project for the track featured Dagan performing live on vegetables as part of an advertising campaign for the Danish grocery chain Irma. That project was distinct from the official music video.
