Cant' see enough of that brush on your video to tell!.
But here!.!.!.

Two BASIC kinds actually!. Single or double action!.
(And probably a ton of variations, sizes etc!.)

What I would suggest if you want to try this, find an airbrush kit at a craft store!. Probably be the single action, and will come with a can of compressed air, and some jars etc!.
This is the easiest way to give it a try!.

Later, the dual action is the way to go!.
There is a lever/button at the top, and as you pull that back or move it forward, you can control the spray!. I think these run about fifty bucks!. also!.!.!. the air cans get expensive fast!. You'll need to invest in a small compressor at some point!. Assuming you get into this!.

When I was in only my second year painting, we had to do a painting "in the style of another artist!."
I was flipping through a book of paintings and came across what I THOUGHT was a photograph!.
Well!.!. not!. "Acrylic on canvas!." It was by Audry Flack!.
(Look her up, she has awesome stuff!.)
Well!.!.!. my teacher said she uses photos of a still life projected onto the canvas, and airbrushes the painting!.
Then he brought out a brand spanking new airbrush and big noisy huge compressor, and said!.!.!.
I haven't a clue how it works, but your welcome to try!."
It was my first time using one!.
And just look!
