Here is an example provided by the Media Resource Center of the University of California at Berkeley, which should serve as a formatting guideline:
Shimabukuro, Jake. "Ukulele weeps by Jake Shimabukuro." 04 April 2008. Online video clip. YouTube. Accessed on 22 April 2006.Since the new 7th ed. of the MLA came out this year, the correct citation is as follows:
Obama, Barack. "We Have a Lot of Work to Do." Speech. 2 Nov. 2008. YouTube. 23 June
2009.
"Midnight Train to Georgia." Perf. Gladys Knight, Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert
Downey, Jr. American Idol. 21 May 2008. YouTube. 6 June 2009.
I don't believe YouTube channels are something you can cite properly. For each video you've used, you should cite it in MLA.
In MLA format, the correct way to cite a source title is to italicize it.
