Hi Gary,
The animated-short you are referring to, was 1953's "Duck Amuck!".
It took the concept of an animator abusing his creation. Daffy Duck is terrorised by a mad animator, (possibly Chuck Jones or Mel Blanc themselves), who leaves Daffy without scenery; incorrect scenery; erasing him; messing about with the sound; being drawn as a thing, and dropping the ceiling on him.
As the short ends, we find Bugs is the animator!
I'd highly recommend a great hardback book called "The Encyclopedia Of Animated Cartoons" (Second Edition) by Jeff Lenburg. It'll cost you about £25, but it's a brilliant book listing many of the most famous animations, both films, shorts and serials, from the 1900's to the late 1990's. The book is mainly black and white, but it does have some colour illustrations too. (The front cover includes The Simpsons, Rocky And Bullwinkle, Quick Draw McGraw (and friends), Alvin And The Chipmunks, and Dexter's Laboratory.)
The ISBN number, should you want it, is: 0-8160-3831-7, and it's published by Facts On File, Inc. It's a US import, but should be available from most decent import bookstores, like Waterstones, Ottakers or Borders!
