Strobist is a great lighting resource. It is more geared to
photographers, and getting them to use off-camera flashes, but the same
ideas for separating the subject from the background by changing light
distances and intensities is just as usable in POV. Their image pool on
Flickr is good inspiration as well.

I work from an engineering mindset when building a scene. Either I know
what the end result is going to be, and just keep tweaking the pieces
until it gets there; or I know what the pieces are and I just play with
random numbers until something ends up where I like it.
