First of all, fill in your layer with a dark grey. Then go to Filter> noise> add noise, and play around with the settings.

Then go to filter> Blur> motion blur. Again play around with the settings, although I normally like a diagonal blur.

Now go to filter> render> lighting effects. Tinker with the settings, there is no certain way of doing this.
