When citing titles do i use italics on any of the following? Essay Title Book Title Video Title Play Title

OpenStudy (zale101):

Yes u should. Italics are used in the titles of Books Full-length plays Long poems Music albums Anything that has sections, like anthologies or collections Newspapers Magazines Movies Television and radio shows Ships (With ships and other craft, the USS or the HMS is not italicized.) Airplanes Spacecrafts Trains Some scientific names Court cases Works of art Musical works like operas and musicals Computer and video games

Of course, italicizing is easy on the computer, but what about if you are hand writing something? In such cases, underlining is still used and is the same as writing a title in italics. However, you should not both italicize and underline a title. http://grammar.yourdictionary.com/punctuation/titles-using-italics-and-quotation-marks.html
