Well animated graphics seem to be possible from vba
Just run this snippet  in debug window
Please don't hit me ;)

With Assistant
    .On = True
    .Visible = True
    .Move xLeft:=400, yTop:=300
    .MoveWhenInTheWay = True
    .TipOfDay = True
    'need reference to MS Office 11.0 Library
   ' .Animation = msoAnimationGreeting
   .Animation = 2
End With
