New: AI passthrough!
This amazing Deo feature uses the power of AI to turn every VR scene into AR passthrough! Now you can take characters out of VR and have them right there with you - as if they were in the same room.
Notice: AI Passthrough is presently in beta mode, and as such, users may encounter occasional service imperfections. The feature is currently exclusive to the DeoVR app, but it will soon be accessible on both browsers and mobile devices. Your feedback is highly encouraged and appreciated.

Release: 1984, created to promote the single "Blue Jean."
Director: Julien Temple; Story by: David Bowie.
Cast: David Bowie (as Vic and Screaming Lord Byron) and Louise Scott.
Award: Won the 1985 Grammy Award for Best Video, Short Form (later renamed Best Music Video).
Runtime: Approximately 20–21 minutes, depending on the PAL or NTSC home video release.
The narrative of the short film follows Vic, who tries to impress a girl by claiming to know her favorite rock star, Screaming Lord Byron. After securing a concert ticket for her, Vic attempts to sneak backstage to arrange a meeting. The film ends with a twist: the girl and Byron have already met in Peru, and she leaves with the star. In a meta moment, Bowie (as Vic) breaks the fourth wall to question the director about the plot change. The shorter music video, which runs just over three minutes, focuses solely on Byron's performance of "Blue Jean" and was later included in David Bowie – The Video Collection (1993).
