I've been following Mark Francher's amazing tutorial ‘Optical Flow in Houdini’ (https://vimeo.com/242373845) tutorial using Houdini Apprentice but when I go to render out it is always just a black screen while the scene view looks great!

I thought this was a problem with my graphics card so farmed the render out to GridMarkets but still it came back black.

Can anyone help?

Attached is the project file and one of the .exr files returned from GridMarkets.

Hi, aecroft, not sure the problem is because of it - but in the uploaded by you file - there is the warning for cop2net1 - Cannot find file: /Users/dlab/Downloads/OpticalFlow_16.5/tex/AMY1949_rgb/AMY1949_rgb_colourgraded.*.jpg
and nothing happens in the viewport.
Opening file gives the mistake too - Attachment.
If by some reason it's tutorial related (I don't think so though) - here was recently post where Mark answered (don't know how he noticed it, maybe because of the name of his tut in the title) - https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/53940/ [www.sidefx.com] - try to tag him, maybe he's aware about it, anyway feedback is a good thing.
Or if it's about using render mistake probably here will be exact fixing answer.
