About Citing Audiovisual Media

To cite audiovisual media note the author (or producer/director), the title, publisher and date of publication.

The title of audiovisual media is followed by a medium designator such as [videocassette] or [videodisc].

For each type of source in this guide, both the general form and a specific example will be provided.

The following format will be used:

In-Text Citation- entry that appears in the body of your paper.

Reference List- entry that appears at the end of your paper.

Information was drawn from Scientific style and format : the CSE manual for authors, editors, and publishers.
