I'm trying to figure out how this was done, specifically the animation for the LED screen. The loading bar, the random scrolling numbers (on right), the text that pops up on the bottom left.

What's the workflow for making one of these? Animated UV vectors with custom texture maps? Image Sequence through emissive shaders? I have no clue.

Here a gif animation from original video

Maybe you should do the loading bar animation in another software and then import it in an Image Texture node. I've used a simple black and white image instead. Plug your Image Texture into the Factor of a Mix Shader that mixes the dark backround with the emission color. The emission color itself is a mix between a bright red Emission and a darker red Emission, with a Noise Texture as factor in order to create the sparkling:

Here is what you get if you move the Location values of the Mapping node of the Noise Texture:
