What is a comp card?
A comp card (composite card, zed card or Z-card) is a compact casting reference: one strong lead portrait, a few supporting images, measurements and contact details. Casting people use it to evaluate and remember a model quickly.
What goes on it
- a strong lead portrait — usually a headshot
- 3–5 supporting images showing range: full body, commercial, editorial
- height and measurements
- hair and eye colour
- shoe and dress/suit sizing where relevant
- agency/contact information
Four to six images in total is usually enough. Every photo should earn its place — a comp card is a quick-reference asset, not a contact sheet.
Comp card vs portfolio
The portfolio is the larger body of work; the comp card is the abridged quick-reference version pulled from it. A casting person may glance at the card first and open the wider portfolio only if there is a fit.
Digital vs print
Digital comp cards are easier to send, update and store — and this tool's print view and PDF export give you a print-ready version from the same data. Printed cards still have a place at physical castings and go-sees.
Important: comp cards are not digitals
Digitals are deliberately plain, current photographs that show your natural appearance. If an agency asks for digitals, send digitals — don't substitute a glossy comp card.
For the full breakdown of layout, measurements and common mistakes, read the model comp card guide — and see how comp cards fit with portfolios and digitals.
Want the full portfolio too?
Your comp card works standalone — but the complete portfolio product (curated book, digitals kit and public profile) is coming in beta.
