Using the knife tool on a plane (mesh) makes the cut incorrectly connect to the vertices irregularly

I am a blender newbie and have been trying to figure out how to correctly cut a plane so I can mask a foreground object in my project. Whenever I use the knife tool to make a cut into the plane, points connect with the top vertices of the entire plane which messes up my cut. Even if you don’t understand my specific problem, walking through how to cut this step-by-step would be greatly appreciated!
