You decide what you want to put into the scene.

Then you figure out what objects need to be used, and where they are
placed, to create the objects you want.

You place the camera, too, of course.

Then you either type out the scene code (like I do), or use a modeler.

I generally sketch out things on paper, so that I can get a handle of
how everything is supposed to line up.  I also create scenes and
objects that involve a great deal of math, in order to get objects to
join smoothly, and I have pages of notes, all full of sketches and
algebra.

John
