Monitor screen animation. Maya - substance painter - Unity unreal engine

Hi,

 

im pretty proficient in maya and alright at substance painter. But unity is completely new to me. 

I’ve built a 70’s computer with a glass screen and a blank tile behind the glass (for my monitor information - imagine the matrix screen just running green numbers across the screen) 

 

now I want the computer to be imported into unreal Unity and the monitor to emit light and this animation to run on the screen with a transparent glass over the top.

 

I’ve used maya to build my low poly pc then my high poly pc and baked that into substance painter. I haven’t made any form of animation yet for the screen as I have no idea where to start. 

you see this kind of thing in games all the time and I’m totally lost. Is it straight forward or super complicated with many steps!? 

and is there any kind of tutorial out there than someone knows of that can help.

 

im after high quality but still able to function properly in a game engine.

 

thank you everyone for your help!!!

I have very little experience with Unreal engine - but I imagine you would only export your geometry from Maya - and build the shader in the Unreal editor itself.
