"The Delford Heist" is a YouTube thumbnail for a true crime episode, in a noir detective style. Worn gold serif capitals stack in the upper left with a small genre and episode line, while a figure in a trench coat and hat stands in the rain beside a huge open bank vault door on a dark city street. Use it with your own case title.

Exact readable on-image text: "THE DELFORD HEIST" as the dominant two-line title; "TRUE CRIME · EP. 07" as a compact supporting line; "THE VAULT WAS EMPTY." as a small bottom hook. Composition: a giant circular steel bank-vault door occupies the right 52% of the frame, open just enough to reveal a pitch-black empty vault interior; the heavy locking wheel and radial bolts are sharply defined. In the left foreground, a rain-soaked anonymous figure in a dark overcoat stands in three-quarter back view, face completely hidden, looking toward the open vault. Low angle, wet black pavement reflecting teal and amber light, distant out-of-focus city windows and police-blue glints behind thin rolling haze. No weapons, no blood, no extra words, no logos. Place the title across the upper-left to central area, occupying about 42% of canvas height without covering the vault opening. Design the title in broad monumental classical serif capitals: wide proportions, heavy visual weight, deep V-cut wedge serifs, pronounced thick-thin stroke contrast, clean cut-angle terminals and generous spacing. Letters are weathered pale limestone with shallow chiseled bevels, tiny mineral pits and dark grooves; a hard warm amber key light from upper left catches the bevel edges while cold cyan rim light separates the right edges from the haze. "TRUE CRIME · EP. 07" is condensed small sans-serif beneath the title in muted pale cyan. Set "THE VAULT WAS EMPTY." along the bottom left in small white sans-serif with wide tracking. Deep teal-to-black color grade, amber highlights only on the vault metal and title bevels, volumetric haze, thin horizontal anamorphic lens flare through the middle distance, controlled shadow detail, shallow edge vignette, subtle 35mm film-grain overlay, crisp thumbnail-scale text legibility, cinematic key art, 8k.
