Almost, but not quite. If the Vu+ is running Linux then a USB stick plugged in will be 'mounted' at /media/usb. So using a Windows system, you would only need to create the /movie folder at the top level of the USB device. Once plugged back in to the Vu+, it would appear as /media/usb/movie.

Logging in via FTP (if you can find the Vu+ IP address as w.x.y.z) depends on the FTP client used. Assuming a command line FTP (opening a cmd window):
ftp w.x.y.z
log in, if prompted (assuming you know the Vu+ id and password)
ftp>cd /media/usb
ftp>mkdir movie
ftp>quit
