But at which temperature is the camera set???? I think that's a big omission here, it must be somewhere in the middle like 5000K, so that the 2700K reads warm and 6500K reads cold but what???

White balance affecting the temperature of the lights is often necessary to get your desired look! I made a little series looking at this a few years back - kzfaq.info/sun/PL_dDUxn1Y2e1K1fHHR7pnPCN6VRPYGwhe - hopefully that helps to answer your question a little better than I could in a comment!

Such a great video as always Rob! What are you setting your cameras white balance to? 5600? Or are you shifting it depending on the location/scene (i.e indoor or outdoor). That's what always confuses me when mixing different colour temps. Hope that's not a stupid question.

No stupid questions here! I made a little series more focused on this aspect a few years back - kzfaq.info/sun/PL_dDUxn1Y2e1K1fHHR7pnPCN6VRPYGwhe - practising and experimenting with this can get you in the right ballpark for guessing where white balance is when you only know the color temperature of the light source/s! Hopefully that can help you with this sort of stuff going forward in some way, but also for this particular video, white balance was at 5600k give or take a little for sunrise/sunset, and closer to 4000k for the moonlight shot to keep the cools cooler!

Breaking color temperature down into 3 different styles of shot: Recreation, Modification and Exaggeration. By thinking about most any shot in this way, you may be able to better visualise and implement the desired visual language of the shot/scene/film you're shooting; Recreation allows us to create something very realistic, right down to how a certain location looks in reality at a certain time of day. Modification allows us to add temperatures into a scene that exist in reality, but don't necessarily exist in the space we're shooting. Exaggeration lets us create a combination of temperatures that we might not ever see with our own eyes - but still exist. This is just one aspect of what can contribute toward a cinematic feeling - check out the other episodes in the Lighting for Cinema A - Z series to learn more about what makes cinema feel a certain way: kzfaq.info/sun/PL_dDUxn1Y2e1SJ_Q2H96godCiNSCFvIqI&si=drpJ9zgsYfRRyFOJ
