Hi, I am Soumitra Dutta, an Oxford based entrepreneur and photographer. I’m having an issue where my DeepAR effects fail to render. The SDK initializes, but the effect doesn’t appear even though the effect file seems to load without any errors.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Regards

Soumitra Dutta
