The power of QuickTime X and its screen recording feature can help, but only if yo have Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Or you could use iShowU or Screen Flow.
MRoogle is also a good tool to search for answers, and can often be faster than waiting.

ScreenFlow is the best tool for the job, but it's extremely pricey.
QuickTimeX will record your entire screen but the FPS and image quality isn't the best, still, it sounds like it will suffice. If you need to focus in on a part of the screen you can always throw the resultant file in to iMovie and do any cropping.

My kid uses Screenium - if this is a one-off for a friend, may not be worth the money with Quicktime being an option..

By using QuickTime, you can record your desktop directly. Just drop down “File” then choose “New Screen Recording” is OK. Besides, I learned some other apps from an article, which are also efficient to do this job, such as Jing and free online screen recorder.
