There are programs that "unlock" the lua environment for the game, allowing you to do things through the addon api that you wouldn't normally be allowed to do.
Since they very clearly have friendly nameplates enabled and
skinned in the
third video that was linked, they are definitely not doing this without a third party program, or somehow bypassing the normal restrictions in the client.
Assuming these videos were in fact taken after 7.2, and since it's no longer possible to detect or modify friendly nameplates or chat bubbles in a raid, it doesn't leave a lot of possibilities.
