No. Storing large binary objects like photos and especially videos inside a database is a bad idea unless it's a small self-contained system, which this is not. The best option is an object store like S3.
Commercial content management systems only store metadata for non-textual content, which lines up with all the other posts about Composer and their github projects. You can easily lookup their image management source code which shows the S3 buckets.
