You can also use VLC to record videos. 

Try out all three if the mentioned apps an determine what works best for you.

guvcview - if your web cam is UVC (USB Video Class) compatible (most new
webcams are & you can check here unser 'Supported devices' -
<http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/> and the FAQ to find out your device
<http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/faq/>)

$ sudo apt-get install guvcview

You can then either run from the terminal:

$ guvcview

or look in your Sound & Video menu for 'GTK UVC video viewer'.

guvcview will give you considerably more controls (video, image, codec,
etc) than cheese.
