## Prompt

```text
A genuinely low-quality, grainy, black-and-white CCTV security camera still showing a {subject} standing next to a gas pump at a {setting}. The gas pump has the word "UNLEADED" printed on the top canopy and a large number "2" on the side. In the bottom left corner, there is a digital timestamp overlay reading "{camera_label}", "{date}", and "12:04:16 AM" in a retro pixelated font. The overall aesthetic is authentic early-2000s surveillance footage with heavy noise, poor contrast, and VHS-style artifacts.
```
