- There is no "perfect" or "correct" white balance-depends how you want your shot to feel. A quick moment from my filmmaking workshops in Zimbabwe.

Yes I agree with you that your white balance setting is one of the many artistic choices you can make vs any particular setting being either right or wrong
I used to always use a white or grey card to set white balance, and then realized I was happier with the result when I just toggled through the sun/cloud/shade presets-or dialed in the Kelvin manually.
Brilliantly said.
REALITY is often boring or probably even unappealing.
Thats the reason why 99% of “professional photographers” are still slaves to desktop editing and spend lots of timing editing REALITY to DIS-REALITY which is so much more appealing.
Thanks❤
And if you are making a movie and something happens in Mexico, make it all yellow. 😂
Yes, Hollywood has a tendency to exoticize other countries (especially Mexico) by overdoing the red/yellow tones.
I pretty much always shoot at 4500k for my live event video (concerts and band performances) because the light varies drastically and isnt always the best quality. I would rather all my cameras be the same than correct.
You get it close enough so in post you want to add or take away colors as needed
