Here is my Final Edit. The After Effects that I have used in my film include the following:
- Our Production logo that is shown at the very beginning of the film, this is counted as one of my after effects as I took time to Update the logo from the original to what it is now. As you can see the difference when you watch my Preliminary Task One and then my Preliminary Task Two.
- My Other After Effects used is the credits, when the names 'Niav Rice' & 'Pheobe Armitage', this after effect is called a slow fade animation on letters.
- An extra After Effect I added was a 'Glitch' On one of my actors, this one is not visible at first but you can definitely see the glitch, this Effect is used 0:25 seconds into the short film.

Great job with your final edit. You have demonstrated that you understand key editing techniques such as continuity editing and also the important relationship between the visual and sound elements to create suspense.
Some observations and comments:
- Logo is great, it is on the screen for a good amount of time
- sound underneath imagery is great, really effective at setting the tone for the film
- Title needs some thought. The army style font doesn't really fit with the tone and style of your film. I would spend some good time putting thought into your title and credit font and look up a cool after effect for those. That could really add to the overall feel of your project and make it a step up in sophistication and creativity.
- make sure that with your shots, you are keeping the camera in focus. This is noticeable with your initial establishing shot. It is also noticeable with the cellphone shots, the background is in focus and the phones are out of of focus. This could have also been a good place to rack focus / pull focus from background to foreground.
- Your soundtrack is well implemented and it adds to the suspense that builds towards the end
