You need some kind of capture software - I use Fraps, which is cheap and good. Fraps has a free trial version.
Camstudio is a free screen capture program; Mac-users can try the free program Berio or Screenium. XFire is another free one. There are many not-for-free programs.

Suppress your UI: control-alt-F1
Video shot in virtual reality is usually called "machinima."

The window size can be the video size, or some programs let you take just a portion of your screen.

Raw footage is large.

Edit with a free program like Windows Movie Maker or iMovie until you decide you want something more. Editing is to add titles/effects and cut clips up and rearrange them, and to put the video in a format that is good-looking but not huge.
