Make a 2 x 4 image and color in half of it with black

While making this I got the feeling of a security cam sort of thing so I added a green color layer and used an airbrush to darken up some places. Then I added some time in the corner.

Dude that is awesome!

I love it :)

Thanks sir let's see your security cam shots :)

Very easy ;).

yeah it's very easy to do so it is a good one for beginners. You can adjust the width and common-ness of the scan lines by making the 2x4 to 4 x 8 for example. Then only colour in 1/4 of it.

Added : Just found an action to do this for you automatically if your lazy / untalented :)
