How to achieve the Teal and Orange Look?

You need to mix color temperatures in the frame — basically it’s warm and cold lighting but then in post the blue is shifted to the cyan. If you can use cyan lighting, mixed with orange, even better.

Thank you. 

So, basically warm lighting for key light and cold lighting for the background? or the opposite? or depends.

To tweak in postproduction and apply that common teal orange look of blockbuster movies you're referring to, this software package offers finishing LUT's. The M31 is the one that gives the look you're after.  Just keep in mind that less is more. You can apply this to an adjustment layer and only use it at 60% or so.  Usually that's  more than enough.
