Need info on DIY Temporary Wall

Any builders, contractors, framers etc that could steer me in the right direction? I need to build a temp wall with a door to close in my den and make a bedroom. The measurements are 9' wide by 8' tall and I would like to put a door(pocket sliding door) in as well. Looking for any ideas, plans, info or advice you may have. Id like to do this the easiest/inexpensive way possible since it is temp. Im pretty good with the tool side of things and I realize the measurements are the most important part. Thanks for any help. I figured most of you guys on here know your trade.
 
Why kind of temporary are we talking? Like temporary for a week to do a remodel somewhere else or for a couple months? I would frame 2x4 2' centers, and if you want to do a pocket door buy the frames they have at hardware stores. You could drywall it, or just use osb or plywood and paint it with a lot less work and mess. I would also frame it in place and cut your studs a touch long to kind of wedge it in floor to ceiling to reduce the chance of it rattling loode
