Tracing in Womp 

Here, we'll learn how to add and subtract from shapes, create custom shapes, and even play around with physics. 

Step 1:  Get Started in Womp  

• Navigate to Womp.com to access the platform 

• Log In: Carefully copy and Paste the login details that were DMed to you over Zoom  

Step 2:  Create a new project   

• Click on “New Project” (a large blue icon at the top right of the screen) start modeling

• Delete all the default objects in your workspace  

Step 3:  Import an Image   

• Navigate to the 'Import' option found at the bottom of the layers panel. 

• Select an image (like a simple drawing or logo) to import into WOMP. 

Step 4: Position the Image

• Adjust the image's position, scale, and orientation using the transform tools. 

• Reduce the opacity to see through it 

• Press the lock icon so it doesn't move 

Step 5: Trace the Image

• Use the drawing or line tools to trace the contours of the image. 

Step 6: Create basic shapes (e.g., rectangles, circles) along the edges of the image. 

• Combine and adjust these shapes to match the image outline. 

Step 7: Extrude the Shapes

• Select the traced shapes and use the extrusion tool to convert them into 3D objects.
  Step 8: Save your work! 

• Head to the 'Export' button at the top right of the screen 

• Click on 'Export Full Screen Image' and share it to Day 4 Padlet! 

Activity: Design a Sellable Product  

Apply everything we’ve learned so far in Womp to design a product you could sell, like jewelry or a toy.

Step 1: Brainstorm and sketch out product ideas in either Sketchpad or Pixlr

Step 2: Create a new project 

Step 3: Combine, add, subtract, and goop shapes 

Step 4: Add colors and materials to your product 

Step 5: Ask for feedback along the way 

Step 6: Upload and share!
