Capturing the screen if a fairly simple thing. Please see my past answers:

With WPF:
WPF Rectangle capture[^],
Remote Screen Capture in WPF[^];

With System.Windows.Forms:
Capture an in-focus form[^],
C# Screen Shot whats in the pael[^].

The best tool to put a set of captures images in a video is FFMpeg or libavcodec utility. You can use it manually, via a batch file, or programmatically, in some different way. I explained it in my past answer:
how to convert image to video in C#[^].

Am able to capture only a single image and save it. but where as my requirement is to capture the active screen as frame by frame and need to convert those frames to videos and save it in the local machine. If possible send me the source code

You have enough code fragments shown in the referenced answers or articles. You only need to put it all together. You cannot expect that someone do this work for you. Rather, you need to try to do it by yourself and then ask some follow-up questions if you face big problems. After all, you are interested the most in the results.
