Comp Card Design
How to beat the competition with 5 shots.
By Joe Edelman - The Business of Modeling

That's correct - you only get 5 shots to make a good first impression and if you don't hit the target with all 5 shots - you will severely limit your chances of being accepted by an agency. Just like your portfolio, your comp card must tell a story - not a short story - just the abridged version of your portfolio. - www.JoeEdelman.com
