WINOL Live all night election coverage!

The journalism students at Winchester University are broadcasting a live feed of the election tonight from 10pm-6pm. Students of all years have joined in to help out with the all-night coverage, from production work, to outside broadcasts.
I, amongst some of my other fellow first years, are filming a behind-the-scenes documentary on the event, featuring the different job roles that people are fulfilling during the evening.
These roles range from directing, sound engineers, production workers, and runners. Some students are also broadcasting live from other constituency's such as Eastleigh, and New Forest, giving live updates on the count, and finally ending with the overall result.
The atmosphere is a mixture of tension and excitement, as we near the beginning of the live feed. The aim is to be the first to broadcast the final results, hopefully before the BBC, as this will be a massive achievement for the university and all the people involved.
