Thanks a lot for you help guys.  Right now I'm just going to focus on
exporting a small number of frames and just figuring out how to use
POV-Ray, format my scene to the correct pov type and just run 100 frames
the easy-but-tedious way.  There's not really going to be any value in me
learning more of POV-Ray than I need to finish the project, so I think i'll
just create some scripts and let the boring way run overnight or nights.

It is good to know, however, if I do decide to get more into POV-Ray that I
can find great people like you to help me out, thanks again.
