Hi man.. were they talking about Hell's Angels on the tv ?
At first it just looks like you are maybe picking too hard with the pick in a parallel position to the strings. In the second half of the video your picking looks more even and the angle of the pick is pointing down a bit more. Altering the angle of the pick is good because it means there is less of the pick to get caught on the strings. That means less resistance which means it's slightly easier to pick.
Have a look at this Paul Gilbert video where he talks about pick angles. You might find some good tips there too
