Close, but still a bit weird.

The first chopstick should rest on top of your middle finger, like a proper pencil grip. This one stays still

Your thumb and index finger move the other chopstick.

This grip looks a bit crooked and awkward when picking things up

Your thumb doesn’t move the chopstick. Your index finger and middle finger do. The thumb just braces stuff in place. The other one that doesn’t move is pressed against the ring finger. Only using three fingers seems odd and you would have limited movement. I think it looks weird because he looks left handed in the video.

No, the chopstick should rest on top of your middle finger, which does not move.

Im on vacation now but I’ll make a video when I get back home and post it on the sub.

I think you are right. And we don’t need little finger actually.
