Tamanoir Immersive Studio

Tamanoir Immersive Studio is a Paris-based creative technology and immersive production studio founded in 2017 by Rémi Large and Samuel Lepoil, also known as Sam Lecoeur. Its work brings theater and dance together with extended reality, spatialized sound and interactive environments. The studio develops experiences in which audiences move through a setting, encounter performers or influence how a story unfolds.

Working across original productions and commissioned collaborations, Tamanoir combines artistic conception, direction and technical production. Its multidisciplinary practice includes interactive dramaturgy, real-time 3D, projection mapping and audio composition. These capabilities support formats ranging from headset-guided sound walks and immersive installations to multi-user virtual reality and hybrid stage productions. Technology serves the physical and emotional experience of the audience, with particular attention to movement and collective participation.

Experiences across performance and digital media

The studio’s productions explore different relationships between spectators, stories and places. A Few Steps From the World, created with the Opéra national de Paris, is a 40-minute spatialized sound and light experience inside the Palais Garnier. Call Me Calamity, co-produced with Small Creative, combines an interactive VR installation with immersive theater to explore the myth of Calamity Jane. Hétérotopia : Miroirs & Perspectives, made with Néon Minuit, develops an architectural and narrative experience, while Les Naufragés combines immersive sound and live performance.

Tamanoir also works with performing arts institutions and production partners on the development, co-production and distribution of immersive projects. Its collaborations encompass cultural organizations, museums, public institutions, festivals and brand experiences. The supplied research identifies work with the Bibliothèque nationale de France and France Télévisions alongside its performing arts partnerships.

Across these settings, the studio connects digital storytelling with the immediacy of a shared event. Its range of work extends from intimate audio-led encounters to interactive scenography and live audience participation, bringing artistic development and technical implementation into the same production process.
