You can either:
Click the upload icon (upwards arrow) and then navigate to your video file.
Leave the Encoding type as 'Make Compatible'.
Click the 'Upload' button.

Director will automatically start uploading it (using the 'Make Compatible' encoding type).
Director will show a progress bar near the top of the page to indicate upload progress.
On completion, Director will then encode the video, indicating when it has completed.
