# How To Sign Video Call in Sign Language

A critical word to know in sign language, now that the hybrid workplace is becoming extremely popularized. I mean, how often are you hopping onto Zoom these days?

## Signing “Videoconference”

1. **Hand position 1**: Using both hands, start from the “O” shape where the thumb is touching the rest of the curled fingers.
2. **Hand position 2**: From the “O” hand-shape, extend the hand into an open “5” shape
3. **Placement**: Place both hands in front of you, with the backs of your hands touching each other
4. **Movement**: With the back of your hands touching each other, expand the “O” hand-shape to the “5” hand-shape

## Note

You can also use the sign for "video call" to mean "video chat" or "video meeting."
