I need clarification. What do you mean by renders? Images? Presumably those are just Texture2D's. As to the animated scenes... I'm not exactly how a whole scene would be used in a game. Individual models I can understand, but whole scenes?

You'll be able to use models that you create from other programs using the XNA Framework Content Pipeline, they will need to be exported as either a .X file or a .FBX file.
