The capture module integrated into PowerPoint is very easy to use, it also allows you to capture an audio source. But for this you will need to select the default audio capture device in your operating system: a microphone for example. There is a restriction on the minimum size of the area that you can record: it must be at least 64 x 64 pixels.
