What to Do With Your Hands While Talking on Video | The VidConcierge Show with Dr. Walter Salubro
Episode Overview
Have you ever hit record and suddenly wondered, “What do I do with my hands right now?” Either they freeze completely or they start moving too much.
Most health professionals are comfortable using gestures when speaking to patients, but the moment the camera turns on, hands either disappear from view or become distracting.
In this episode of The VidConcierge Show, Dr. Walter Salubro shares three simple techniques to help you use your hands with purpose so you look confident, feel natural, and connect better with your viewers.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
- The Frame Anchor: How to keep your hands visible in frame with natural, conversational gestures.
- Emphasize with Energy Zones: How to match your hand movements to the energy of your message.
- Anchor One Hand Temporarily: A technique to stop fidgeting and create visual balance on camera.
Today’s Action Steps
Before your next recording, try this practice:
- Film a 60-second tip on a topic you know well.
- Watch it back and focus only on your hands.
- Practice using the Frame Anchor for steady, natural gestures.

Notice how these small adjustments make your delivery look more confident and professional.
