This looks like Inverse plus some added grain to me.

Disks don’t take up much space, so I keep my old install disks in a CD binder. Keep the activation numbers there, also.
As an example, I recently built a new PC and was surprised to learn that the only way to reinstall Abode Encore was using Adobe’s install disk. If I hadn’t kept the original disks, I would have been re-authoring several older DVD/BluRay projects.
(and BTW – I’m still irritated that Adobe abandoned those of us who still work on dozens of projects every year that involve “obsolete” technology like DVD and B-R! …then they made it very difficult to use software that we had already purchased.)

My observation: the grid doesn’t move, and the colors and circles are animated on top of the grid.
So, I would start with a grid, animate a layer filled with random colors on top of it, then block out the round shapes with another (animated) layer on top of that.

Most of the footage seems to be animation of still images in a creative manner. There are likely several techniques being used here that could be accomplished in any number of different types of software.
The line drawings can be made by manually tracing over the image or even using some sort of cartoon effect to generate the edges. Search for “kid stays in the picture effect” to learn how to animate the church interiors from still images.

Am I imagining that Premiere HAD a speech-to-text option several years ago? Seems like it went away about the same release that eliminated the direct-to-DVD capability inside Premiere.
Adobe discontinued transcription because most folks were very disappointed in the results. Hopefully this one is much better.

Probably not. You’l probably need to re-shoot.
The background is very similar to skin tone, so any method of masking it would likely also impact the skin.

When I go to your youtube link, I just get a talking head video with no titling or splash screen. So I just used a screen capture of your post.
That being said, I think I would just treat this as a white-balance problem, using any of the usual tools, then enhance exposure and contrast. Here’s what I could do in just a few seconds with camera raw filter in Photoshop.
Of course, all this assumes you have rights to use the contents and can somehow download the intended video.

For 3d set extensions, this tutorial might be a good place to start.

If your are in the mood for researching, you might try the Paley Center for Media (paleycenter.org).
JSTOR (and others) probably can provide “Kinescope Recording and Technical Considerations in Films Produced for Television Transmission” for some technical details.

I am not an expert here – just someone who (many years ago) had some of my video transferred to film.
There are several processes to transfer from video to film. One of the most widely-used was called kinescope and basically involved aiming a film camera at a “picture-tube” and then making some adjustments for differing aspect ratios and frame rates. Early network news programs sometimes used this to get “video” out to the rest of the world very quickly. It was then put on a local telecine and converted back to video for over-the-air broadcast.
Kinescopes were also used by early television series. I believe that the earliest “I Love Lucy” shows were one of the first to be kinescoped. Numerous techniques were introduced to minimize the effect of scanning lines, ghosting, and other artifacts. As color video came along, the kinescope process was incrementally improved to accommodate the color information.
There was some experimentation using an electron-beam to write directly onto movie film, but I’m not certain which systems, if any, even made it into production.
The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) would have all sorts of technical details in their journals from the 1950s and 60s. I have not yet found a free archive for that publication, but you might try a large university library.
