Hey Gang!
I am totally stuck on how to upload a video for local guides and contributions?
Do we just make the view review then hash (#) the maps location of the store that we want to review?
If so how will this help with our contributions?

Hi @Local-Concierge Welcome to Local Guide Connect Community!
You can add video by below steps.
To improve Google Maps and share your favorite photos and videos, add them to Google Maps. You can add or remove them at any time. You can't add photos or videos to addresses.
When you post photos, here are some more things that others will be able to see:
Tip: If you’re a Local Guide, you can get points by adding photos and videos to Google Maps.
Add a photo or video from a place’s pageNote: To add videos, you must use an Android device.
Note: You can add photos for points of interest, like businesses or parks, but not addresses or coordinates.
Add photos or videos from "Your contributions"Note: You’ll see suggestions for photos to add to Google Maps. To remove a suggestion, tap X.
You can get more information here in this help page.
Please be informed that these feature is not available for iOS 🙂

@Local-Concierge the videos are uploaded via your Google Maps app. I find the video in my Google Photos, then I select the share option, and one of the apps that is available is Google Maps, from there I select the location and then submit it. I hope that helps.
