NOTE: Video and/or Audio will NOT stream (play) directly from Teacher Vitae, you can store the uploaded file but will need to download the file and open it in a player that can play the file on your local system. A better option might be to upload your video to a secure streaming site and link to the video in the narrative of your portfolio document. This is also true for files that are greater than 25MB, those cannot be uploaded directly into Teacher Vitae due to size restrictions.
For files of that type, here's a link to the Google support for uploading files into YouTube. Be sure to set your video privacy settings in YouTube to unlisted for increased privacy.

When finished uploading in YouTube, copy the link to your video and paste it right into your artifact.
