Carrierwave implementation not working

I've just finished creating a simple Carrierwave file upload system (via the example at http://railscasts.com/episodes/253-carrierwave-file-uploads)

Here is my model:

require 'carrierwave/orm/activerecord'

class Video < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessible :course, :qa_complete, :qa_id, :subject, :title, 
  :translate_complete, :translator_id, :type_complete, :typer_id, :video_id, :due_date, :translation_handwritten

  validates :video_id, :presence => true, :uniqueness => true #add uniqueness in db too
  mount_uploader :translation_handwritten, TranslationsUploader
end

Here is my form view:

<%= form_for @video.video_id, :html => {:multipart => true} do |f| %>
  <p>
    <%= f.file_field :translation_handwritten %>
  </p>
  <p><%= f.submit :Upload %></p>
<% end %>

Here is my uploader:

class TranslationsUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base

  storage :file

  def store_dir
    "uploads/#{model.class.to_s.underscore}/#{mounted_as}/#{model.id}"
  end

  def default_url
    ActionController::Base.helpers.asset_path("fallback/" + [version_name, "default.png"].compact.join('_'))
  end

  def extension_white_list
    %w(jpg pdf png)
  end
end

Whenever I try actually uploading, however, it redirects and gives a flash notice appropriately but does not actually upload to image. When I print @video.translation_handwritten.url it shows /assets/fallback/default.png which is my default url. Where might the issue be? I've been staring at this forever...

Thank you!!!

This might not be your only problem, but you need to change

form_for @video.video_id, :html => {:multipart => true} do |f|

to

form_for @video, :html => {:multipart => true} do |f|

If that doesn't fix it, you should post your controller's create method.
