I have tried something along those lines and if you don't mind waiting several hours
(days) for 
the next frame, then yes, it's easy. The problem is that what's shown in that video is
a 
somewhat real like image compared to povray aiming for an absolute real life image.
I'm sorry 
to break it to you, but Povray is not going to provide you with that kind of imagery 
for a few 
years. You'll need a honkin' load of horsepower to create a video like that with
povray level 
of realism. And it's not going to be real life anytime soon.
