A nice way to show how to fold Origami is through animation. Draw each step 
individually in a program of your choice. I use the *free* program Inkscape to 
create the diagrams, enlarging them to 200%. Import the pictures into Windows 
Movie Maker and create the animation. I “speed up double” the visual effects 5 
times for each frame. For the natural pauses, I insert/copy the frame 4 times. 
This is my first attempt in creating an Origami animation, so one can see that 
it must not be too difficult to do. With time and practice it can be refined.

(this older version is more user friendly, and works perfectly in Win XP/Vista, 
7 and 8 - 32 and 64 bit - vs the newer
version designed for Windows 7)
