on a Mac, you can record your screen + mic audio by following these two sets of instructions:

Go to Applications – Utilities — Open Audio Midi Setup
Click the (+) Plus sign in bottom left corner
Choose “Create Aggregate Device”
Place a checkmark next to Soundflower 2ch and Built-in Microphone
Click the (+) Plus sign again
Choose “Create Multi-Output Device”
Place a checkmark next to SoundFlower 2ch and Built-in Output
Go into System Preferences – Sound – Output — choose Multi-Output Device
Now, when you open up QuickTime – Start New Screen Recording and select “Aggregate Device” from drop down arrow on the right.
