Flash Photography Tutorial
This series of videos is designed to help off-camera flash beginners quickly advance to lighting with purpose. First, this series assumes you have an understanding of the exposure triangle, and are capable of controlling your camera in Manual mode. While it's possible to use flash with semi-automatic modes, I think it's a requirement to understand lighting in manual mode if you want to take control of all aspects of your images. This series is broken down into short, easy-to-digest lessons that progress you from balancing a single light, to using multiple lights outdoors to drive home the story in your image.

This video is designed to build a fundamental understanding of white balance and color temperature. It starts by introducing white balance and how to identify the color temperature of a scene. It then progresses into how to implement flash which is daylight balanced and gel the flash so it matches with any ambient color temperature. From there it goes over recommended gel systems for speedlights and monolights alike, highlighting gel products from Rosco, Magmod, and Flashgels.com.

Candlelight : 2700K
Tungsten : 3200K
Daylight : 5500K
Cloudy : 6300K
Shade : 7000K+

The color temperature of a light source is the temperature of an ideal black-body radiator that radiates light of a color comparable to that of the light source. Color temperature is a characteristic of visible light that has important applications in lighting, photography, videography, publishing, manufacturing, astrophysics, horticulture, and other fields. In practice, color temperature is meaningful only for light sources that do in fact correspond somewhat closely to the radiation of some black body, i.e., those on a line from reddish/orange via yellow and more or less white to blueish white; it does not make sense to speak of the color temperature of, e.g., a green or a purple light. Color temperature is conventionally expressed in kelvin, using the symbol K, a unit of measure for absolute temperature.
