A composite card is a models marketing tool. Sometimes they are also called a Zen card and I’ve seen them done wallet, post card and standard size. However, standard size is what you will need for professional purposes.

 If you are trying to break into the modeling industry then you are required to have a composite card. Your agent will be sending your composite cards to their clients to help book you jobs.

A composite card will have your name and a head shot of you on the front of the card, and three to four pictures of you on the back card your stats and agency logo will be listed.

 Your composite cards need to be updated no later than every six months unless you decide to make  changes to your appearance. If this is the case, you are required to redo your composite cards right away. You should never send in a composite card with your hair blond and then show up at an audition with it black or  six inches shorter. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER…

Agents expect to see you exactly as you are on your composite card and will represent you as so. So please no glamour shots on the front of your card, you should look as natural as possible.

You may do a formal or fashion shot on the back side of the card if you choose, and it  gives you a little more room to play and show off your personality.

  Be sure to always take these along with you when you are attending an open call or going to a casting and include them in your professional marketing package.
