Shooting video is as easy as taking picture. Just execute `raspivid -o video.h264 -t 10000`. -o option decides the output file and if '-' is given, output goes to STDOUT. -t is time in millisecond(s). So the command above will give you a 10-second-video with a name of video.h264. To easily convert this to .mp4 you can install gpac and use MP4Box command.
