HTML video works locally, but not on the AZURE server

New to the server side and stuck...

I have a short video clip on my website. Locally, it working in the browser. Then I deployed to Azure and the video didn't work. My HTML is: 

<section class="promo static" id="home">
  <video autoplay="" loop="" poster="assets/img/VideoPick.png" id="bgvid">
    <source src="assets/img/ThisVideo.webm" type="video/webm">
    <source src="assets/img/ThisVideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
  </video>
</section>

Note: My local is a Mac, and I am using sublime for the editor.

Is there something in the configurations I need to change, or a web.config file that I need to add and reference in the project?

You need to allow mp4 on IIS. You can do this using a web.config file.

PS: you don't need to use .NET, just create a file called "web.config" with the following content:

<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <staticContent>
            <mimeMap fileExtension=".mp4" mimeType="video/mp4" />
            <mimeMap fileExtension=".webm" mimeType="video/webm" />
        </staticContent>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>
