White Balance

When shooting in different lighting, the setting color temperature on the camera must be adjusted accordingly.  Color Temperature is the amount of blue or orange light that the camera sees. By changing the color temperature on the camera, it makes different lights appear as white in the shot. This is called the white balance of the camera. This setting makes sure that white is being properly shown in the camera. Color temperature is measured in Kelvin, 15,000K being clear daylight while inside is measured at around 3,200K. The importance of color temperature is immense during a shoot. Without changing to the correct color temperature settings, make the scene look worse, change the mood of a whole scene, and make the editors do extra work in color correction. Without the use of color temperature, scenes will look much different than how you want it to be.
