TEASING THE MOMENTUM

The countdown to Forward Festival 2025 has officially begun! With the release of three teaser clips, the stage is set for an unforgettable season that kicks off in Berlin on 28.–29. August and continues in Vienna on 2.–3. October. At the heart of this year’s identity is a redefined vision: Turn Ideas Into Action – and no one could translate that spirit more vividly than Found Studio.

Known for their visually and conceptually striking motion design, London-based Found Studio has earned a reputation for blending design, animation, and live action into compelling visual narratives. Whether collaborating with cultural icons or global brands, their work feels alive, making them the perfect creative force to craft the Forward Festival 2025 Main Titles.

The teasers offer a glimpse into the kinetic energy and layered storytelling Found is known for. The visuals are paired with a pulsing, atmospheric soundscape by Echoic Audio, a multi-award-winning sound studio that will also shape the final Main Titles soundtrack. The result is a sensory experience that encapsulates where Forward is heading: toward a future where ideas don’t just float, but move.

This year’s Festival season will embody the theme "Turn Ideas Into Action" not only through the Main Titles but across every talk, workshop, and experience. It’s a call to creatives to break out of concept-mode and step into real-world impact.
