Can't Upload Video to Firebase Storage

I am trying to upload a video that I have selected from the gallery of the simulator to firebase-storage. However, the places where I log errors, print errors. I am using iOS 15.5 and the video I am trying to upload is file:///Users/data/Containers/Data/Application/146F1DDE-5281-4646-8639-8E4C51B06958/Library/Caches/ImagePicker/4FF42B68-B66C-4020-B4EC-03AFF907FE18.mov.

import firebase from "firebase";
require("firebase/firebase-storage")

export const saveMediaToStorage = (media, path) => new Promise((resolve,reject)=> {
    const fileRef = firebase.storage().ref().child(path)
    fetch(media)
        .then(response =>response.blob())
        .then(blob =>fileRef.put(blob))
        .catch(()=>console.log("Error1"))
        .then(task =>task.ref.getDownloadURL())
        .catch(()=>console.log("Error2"))
        .then(downloadUrl =>resolve(downloadUrl))
        .catch(() => reject())    
}) 

Here is my package.json file
