Use Photo Booth To Record Secretly

Photo Booth, a Mac application, uses the iSight camera to record videos on a Mac OS X.


If you are an evil kid brother or a mischievous friend, you may be trying to devise the perfect prank on your older sibling or friend. One idea is to secretly record video of them on Photo Booth. The yielded footage could then be used as blackmail, or as a way to embarrass your friend, brother or sister. Whatever your motives may be, all you need access to is a little imagination and a Mac computer to conduct this tricky gag.


Instructions


1. Remove Photo Booth from the dock. To do so, click on the icon and drag it away. Then, open Finder, select the "Applications" folder and double-click on "Photo Booth" to launch the application.


2. Start recording video. To do so, click on the gray film roll icon, then select the red camcorder icon. A 3-second timer will mark the recording process. The video's file will be stored on the Mac's hard drive.


3. Go to "Photo Booth" in the menu bar and select "Hide Photo Booth" to hide the running application from the dock and your desktop view.


4. Place a piece of electrical tape, or a small black sticker, over the green recording light at the top center of your Mac OS X 10.3 or later computer.
