I'm working on a documentary where we use some local TV news clips and some footage of a city council meeting uploaded by the city council itself; anybody have any advice on how to properly cite them?

Hello. I have created a documentary film on an Indian folk genre of music. So I have shot some live performances which were performed on recorded songs. Now the songs are copyrighted as they are mostly from films. As you mentioned in the above video that one should give credits. Can you please give me an example of how a credit should be given if for example a particular song is a copyright of say 'xyz' music company. How it should appear on screen. What should be the terminology used.
