Hi Jason,
I had to do that once and managed to locate a webpage full of
different programs for recording video from the screen. Of course,
they varied in quality. The first one I used turned everything that
was gray to pink. Not good, especially since the imagery I was
recording was primarily in grayscale. The one I ended up using is
called movie grab and is a usable demo. The quality was quite good
but it doesn't do audio.

http://eskimonorth.com/~pristine/screen.html is the page with all the
apps.

if you're using Mac OS X the best program is Snapz Pro.

Not cheap, but it does a fantastic job. I used it to create a little
'reel' of MTAA's net art.

I've used Camtasia - http://www.techsmith.com/ to do this. It's very effective and has loads of features.
