Notes:
- Typically films, television episodes, and other performances have many contributors. After the title, list the contributors most relevant to your project. Most common contributors listed include directors, creators, and performers.
- If the video has only one major creator or contributor, begin your citation with their name and role, and skip the Additional Creators element. If there are multiple contributors, skip the Main Contributor element, and begin your citation with the title instead. This applies to the bibliography entry and the footnote.
- When the main contributor is a director, the name is followed by the abbreviation dir. in the bibliography entry.
