And make it easier than ever to keep in touch with family, friends, and co-workers. However, video calling isn’t always convenient for everyone: Many folks still don’t have cameras connected to their computers, and many others don't want to. In these cases, consider sending a short video message to your favorite people—you’ll find that 30 seconds of video can convey much more emotion and nuance than any amount of text. The steps below assume you have a Mac with a built-in iSight/FaceTime camera, and are running Lion. (The sequence is very similar in Snow Leopard, though there are fewer choices and certain menu items are different.) The resulting video files created are in the H.264 format and designed to be opened on any Mac, iPhone or iPad, as well as most PCs.

Step 1: Record a message Open the QuickTime Player application and choose File ->Powerpoint creator for mac. New Movie Recording. A recording window will open, taking up a fairly large portion of your screen.

Toward the bottom of this window, you’ll see a floating panel that includes a Record button smack in the middle. To the right of the record button, there's a small triangle that denotes a pop-up menu. Clicking the triangle lets you choose a different camera and microphone (if you happen to have more than one attached to your Mac) as well as the quality of the movie. Choose Medium for the quality, and the movie recording window will shrink to 640-by-480 (from 1280-by-1024) pixels. This will help keep the movie’s file size under control.

Now drag the movie recording window underneath the iSight/FaceTime camera (look for the green light at the top of your display). It’s natural to look at yourself when recording a message, and by placing the movie window near the camera, it will seem more like you’re speaking directly to your audience. When you’re ready, click the button to start recording. Don’t worry too much about awkwardness at the beginning and end of your clip—you’ll trim those parts in the next step. Try to keep your message between 20 and 40 seconds. The longer you record, the larger the file, and the more problematic it will be to compress and email. When you’re done recording your message, click the red button.
