Lesson 1
Getting Started
Creating a heads-up display (HUD) begins with understanding what exactly a HUD is and what it’s intended to do. In this first lesson, Ash will cover some of the most common questions and roadblocks faced when designing HUDs, and simple tricks on how to solve them. You’ll analyze various HUDs from films and games, break down the stages and components, and begin sketching assets to use in later lessons.

HUD Modules
After you’ve begun to wrap your head around the purpose and function of your HUD, the next step will be the design phase. To begin, Ash will demonstrate some techniques for creating an “Asset Army” which will be reused and repurposed throughout various modules in the design. From there, you’ll create a base version of the HUD, as well as additional modes for greater storytelling potential.
