Creating Simple Geometry for Image Mapping

Hello Everyone! user added image
I'm currently taking a VFX class for the summer and our final projects are image mapping and camera tracking.

I am currently working on my image mapping project and I am following this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pCfj68W9AA (recommended by the teacher). I have a car in the photo I am using and I was wondering how I can make a simple geometry for it? What tools should I be using? I saw something on using the curve tool? Does anyone know of any easy to follow tutorials?

Anything helps!
Thanks in advance!user added image
