Didn't watch the video but you can pinch it between your pinky and ring finger web pretty easily...kind of like a magician.

Otherwise, I just slide mine under the edge of the pickgaurd during fingerstyle stuff.

To me it looked like the pick was in between the bridge saddles or something, from the way he makes a kind-of "grabbing" motion.
