I just tried to replicate the error using a fresh Pi. I used my Raspberry Pi Zero W to test the code and found the problem.

You need to create a Video folder in your Documents directory for the code to work as is. You could also change the code by changing the camera.start_recording line to a directory that exists on your pi.
