Whenever quoting from audiovisual (video) work, you'll need to provide a time stamp with your quotation (like a page number) in the body of your text. You will not use the time stamp in your reference list. For example:
Fogarty (2014) uses a dog chewing a ball scenario to explain how to use who versus whom. For 'who,' the dog is the subject, the one doing the action (chewing the ball). "When you're talking about the target of the action, you use whom," Fogarty explains (2014, 0:44), with an example slide of "The dog chewed whom?" The ball is whom, the target or object of the action.
Episodes or videos within a greater whole are treated similar to book chapters or anthologies. You will include both the title of the particular episode/video and the greater series.
Note: Include writer(s) and the director for the episode and include the roles in parentheses after each contributor's name. This may include "Writer," "Director," "Executive Director," etc. If one person did both jobs, use (Writer & Director). Cite the URL for the log-in page rather than the URL for the actual media. Exclude the URL if the episode was viewed on cable television rather than online.
