Warming an image
Warming an image up; why would someone use Master Color Balance to do so, versus White Balance? I saw it done in a video, but I'm not sure why they did it that way.

There are many ways to achieve similar effects, you could also make an image warmer using levels or curves as well. I'd say it primarily comes down to preference, they all have subtle differences in the ways they work but can be pretty well matched with one another. 0 -

What about warming the brighter tones and possibly also cooling the dark ones?0 -

Yes, you could do that with the Colour Balance, but separately with the Shadow, Midtone and Highlight wheels. The question is why use the master wheel (which affects the colour of the whole image (all brightnesses) rather than the white balance tool. One answer might be that the colour temperature slider in the WB tool just works on a blue-yellow axis, but the master colour wheel can go in any direction. You can move it more along a cyan-red axis, or a slightly more teal direction and so on. You can probably get the same result with a lot of juggling with both the Kelvin scale and the green-magenta tint slider in the WB tool, but it would be somewhat more tricky.
