Appearances in Shorts
Leon Schlesinger appeared as himself in Freleng's 1940 short You Ought to Be in Pictures, one that combines live action with animation. In this short, Mel Blanc voices Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, and all other characters, except Schlesinger who dubbed his voice because the studio didn't have a sound camera. As with other Warner cartoon staffers, Schlesinger appeared in caricature form in such cartoons as Hollywood Steps Out, Russian Rhapsody and Nutty News.
