Locked shapes are a bit unusual; it's not something you can do in PPT itself, although shapes inserted by PPT's Design Ideas feature will be locked. To lock shapes yourself, you need to use an add-in like ShapeLocker or you need to manually edit the XML code inside the PPTX file.
If you want to have a go at editing the XML, start with John Korchok's starter tutorial here: http://www.brandwares.com/bestpractices/2015/02/xml-hacking-an-introduction/
John Wilson has a sample PPTX with text and image locked in various ways; studying the XML in this presentation should give you an idea how it's done:
