I'm 76 years old, and my hobby is photography from which I create "Slideshows with music added"... so, my question is: Is there any way I could sell some of my slideshows?...
I'm attaching one I just completed and would appreciate any information.

Hey poppy, I watched your video, as well as a couple others of yours. I actually had more fun watching the funny faces on since I like peoples expressions anyway. I did find the one you posted a bit repetitious, and long because of that. Nice pictures, but just too many of the same to keep someones interest for the 4 minute runtime.

I really don't think there is much of a market for slideshows per se, unless it's created around a person or subject, and for them specifically. Ie, taking images of a model for her portfolio, an event or wedding, or portraits for a client, and then creating a slideshow for them has market potential. But I don't think a show of a generic subject, such as flowers, landscapes, sunsets, etc, has as much resale potential.

Actually, slideshows seem to be big now at wedding receptions and funerals (visitations). Try to get your name out locally for slideshows for weddings/ retirements/ birthdays. You might also contact local funeral homes.
