In the video, a person is seen holding a piece of paper in their hand. The person then proceeds to fold the paper in a specific way, creating a crease. After making the crease, the person uses their fingers to gently push the paper along the crease, causing the paper to bend and take on a new shape. The person repeats this process several times, each time carefully folding and bending the paper to achieve the desired result. The video provides a clear demonstration of how to fold paper in a specific way to create a unique shape.
