If this one is a partner of yours, create an FTP account, with permission to access a specific folder on your site that you will create for him. Let him know username and password, and he will be able to upload the files on your site.

Re: uploading video files

First create a folder for him, using BlueFTP. Let's call it "video_uploads". Then CP > FTP Manager > FTP Accounts > Add New account and provide a username and password. In the folder field type "video_upload" so he will only have access to that folder
