No such file or directory error with Sidekiq on Heroku

I'm using the Sidekiq gem to do some background processing involving video files. On my local machine everything works fine but I'm getting the aforementioned error in production. I read about Heroku's ephemeral filesystem and sure enough I'd restarted Heroku so that could be the problem? If it is I don't know how to deal with it given that there is already a tmp folder in my app's root directory. This is the exact error I'm getting from my worker:

2015-09-09T21:41:37.859890+00:00 app[worker.1]: Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - /tmp/RackMultipart20150909-3-420sel.mp4

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You cannot share files between dynos. You'll need to upload to S3 and pass the S3 link to Sidekiq.
