When the QuickTime Player app launches, it will show an Open dialog box for the last used location. Initially, that may be your iCloud Drive QuickTime folder that is empty. Use the sidebar to navigate to a folder on your local hard drive. Use Cancel to not open any file at that time, and to start a recording from the File menu.
