How to make a screencast in 13.04?

How to make a screencast in 13.04?

The question explains what is my need. Can we make screencast without using additional software other than ffmpeg?
While searching the net, I found a solution. The solution was:
ffmpeg -f alsa -i pulse -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1600x900 -i :0.0 -acodec libmp3lame -vcodec huffyuv -delay 10 -sameq screen.avi
The problem with this is that, there is no sound, and also that my screen resolution is not supported, which is 1920x1080. Is it possible to have that resolution?
An other problem is that, even for a 2 minute video, the size of the file generated is > 5 GB ? Is it possible to compress the video at the creation of the file, or in other words, can the video saving and compression takes place at the same time?
Is it possible to redirect the file to be saved to some other location? The current location is my home folder. Is it possible change the location, or redirect it to another location?
