Do I have to upload my videos to YouTube in order to create a QR code?

No. The video or messaging linked by the QR code does not have to be linked to Youtube specifically but it does have to be linked to a url if using the QR generator within Creator Studio. There are individual QR applications that will allow you to create a QR code to link to other items like plain text messaging, phone numbers, email address, etc,… There are many QR code websites that will allow you to link to messaging for free. One example QR generator site not associated with Creator Studio is http://www.qrstuff.com/
