Povray will not output the final animation file, it just creates a series of
still images, much like the individual images on a strip of cine-film.

You will need to use a 3rd-party tool to combine these still-images into an
animation. Check http://www.povray.org/resources/links/3D_Animation_Utilities/
for a list of suitable resources (AVI Creator looks like the sort of thing you
need - http://www.bloodshed.net/avi.html ).
