To add a shape to your scene click the Add new Shape Tool and select a rectangle or an ellipse. You can also press (R) for a rectangle or (L) for an ellipse and click on the canvas where you want it to appear.

When your shape is selected edit its properties in the panel on top of the canvas. Click on the Paintbrush icon to change the shape border and the screen opacity. Also choose between darkening inside the shape instead of the surrounding by deselecting Fill out area.

Edit when and how your shape will appear in the scene by adjusting it in the timeline.
