TemperatureAWBColourCamera decides the temperature per frame — consistent only if the light is

The colour temperature the camera balances for. Set it higher than the actual light and the image renders warmer; lower and it renders cooler.

Overall tone

Overall this reads close to neutral — whites stay white, so the recipe’s colour character comes from the profile rather than from the balance.

How Temperature, A/B and G/M combine

Three dials, one result. Temperature declares what light you are claiming to shoot under, and the two shifts nudge the outcome off that declaration.

The part that trips almost everyone: a higher Kelvin number produces a warmer picture, not a cooler one. The number describes the light, not the output. Tell the camera the light is 8000K — very blue — and it compensates by adding amber, so the file comes out golden.
