my urls.py file has a url that links to the upload_view. I just cant
seem to find why the file isn't uploading. Whenever I try to upload
something, it just refreshes the page and states that the given fields
are required (even though I entered all the information). Help please.

It looks to me like form.is_valid() is returning False, so you're seeing the error messages.
You can debug the cause by putting

import pdb;pdb.set_trace()

just above the "if form.is_valid():" line and then stepping through the validation code in the debugger.
