Television programs

Include: title of program, title of series (underlined, with the first letter of all main words in capitals), production date (or n.d. if unknown), format (in square brackets), broadcast source, and date of broadcast.

The footnote/endnote for the first time you cite a television program would look like this:

[television broadcast] ABC Television (17 July 2003).

Videorecordings, motion pictures

Include: title of item (underlined, with the first letter of all main words in capitals), format (in square brackets), director's first name and family name/surname (if available), place of production followed by a comma, production company, year of publication.

The footnote/endnote for the first time you cite one of these sources would look like this:
