        .AddShape(Type:=msoShapeRectangle, Left:=100, _
        Top:=100, Width:=50, Height:=50)

    Set tmlTiming = ActivePresentation.Slides(1).TimeLine
    Set effBlinds = tmlTiming.MainSequence.AddEffect(Shape:=shpRectangle, _
        effectId:=msoAnimEffectBlinds)

    Set animColor = tmlTiming.MainSequence(1).Behaviors _
        .Add(Type:=msoAnimTypeColor)

    Set clrEffect = animColor.ColorEffect
