I'm looking for a program that I can use to record gameplay footage as well as use to create how-to videos for work that I can store locally on my machine. My budget is approximately $0, so any recommendations that you have are appreciated.
I've used OBS for everything because of it's gamehook. It can record just the game rather than the whole screen. It is quite nice and better than fraps in that aspect. It can also stream to twitch and others. You can set up profiles for streaming and recording. If you're trying to use Twitch, Twitch has a walkthrough on getting started for OBS here: http://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/1262922-open-broadcaster-software

Can stream (twitch for example), but also save to file. And you can add overlay, webcam, text, ...
Just in your budget range
Good luck
