All of what you have seen in the video might have surely been created with Adobe After Effects. It's a Motion Graphics and VFX software from Adobe. With it you can create stunning animations (2D & 3D) and it's an industry standard when it comes to animation, motion graphics and broadcast media (a great example are those explainer videos). It's also used in compositing, grading, visual effects for high end blockbusters (though in this field there are other very powerful competitors, such as Nuke).

What Photoshop is for images After Effects is for motion graphics.

Very helpful answer. Thanks!

Actually you can make sort of animations with Sketch too (plus few plug ins).

Thank you

Glad I could help :)
