Where Is A Site For How To Correctly Cite Things IN A VIDEO?

I'm doing a video for a college class, and I'm not finding anything regarding what I'm looking for citation-wise. The video is a research project. I'm looking for what are the correct ways to make a citation IN THE VIDEO (not citing a video). How would I do this?

    I can't find any source that mentions it specifically.  But from some real-world examples I've seen, you best bet is to treat it like an in-text citation.  Place it as a caption at the bottom of the video frames where the statement is made.

    Pretty much the same way you would in a PowerPoint slide.  Just be certain to have it on screen long enough to read.

    If you're concerned that you might be graded poorly for the way you included the citations, you should definitely ask your professor (or whoever is grading it) beforehand.  Make sure they understand you couldn't find a definitive answer even though you looked.

    You can't go wrong doing it the way you're told you should.
