How do I record videos with a mac book?

Question

Other than iMovie. Can I have the iSight an option in my dock?

Answer 1

iMovie HD does this too, and [depending upon which MB model & s/w you have] may be included as part of the iLife suite in your MB.

If so, just open up a new project, and then at the lower left, click on the movie icon [to the left of the scissors icon], open up iSight, and away ya go, recording and then save in whatever format in wherever location you have available.
