Reflective sphere on checkered plane? Check. :-)

POV-Ray's inbuilt animation capabilities are worth a look.

//--- this.pov
sphere {  // Explicit movement of 1.0 in x for 9 frames
     <-0.5+(frame_number-1)/8,0.2,2>, 0.2
     pigment { rgb <1,0,0> }
     finish { emission 1 }
}
sphere {  // Generic movement of 1.0 in x for n frames
     <-0.5+(clock*1.0),-0.2,2>, 0.2
     pigment { rgb <0,1,0> }
     finish { emission 1 }
}
// Try the following two commands:
//
//   povray this.pov +w400 +h300 -p +kff9
//   povray this.pov +w400 +h300 -p +kff18
//
// The 1st command creates files this1.png  through this9.png.
// The 2nd command creates files this01.png through this18.png.
//
// +kff specifies the 'final frame' count - which less other
// options is the total frame count - and it triggers the
// rendering of frames for an animation.
