Your code block(The curly braces, you know theses {} need to in sync, for each open { you must close }.
You have a dot operator after GetComponent and before the parenthesis.

Try:

function Update ()  { // open
    if(Input.GetButtonDown("leftshift")) { // open
        GetComponent.<Animation>().Play("RUNNING"); // remove the period/dot after GetComponent, unless you're using a generic, if using Animator do GetComponent.<Animator>().Play("RUNNING"), if using Animation then use GetComponent.<Animation>().Play("RUNNING"), or AudioClip, etc, assuming animation.
   } // close curly
} // close curly
