It's basically a dramatic anime style telling of the history of Gainax itself (which was started by anime fans), as well as a documentary featuring footage and interviews with fans in Japan.
Correction: "Comic Party" is about a guy getting dragged to the world of doujinshi. The whole anime is based on an ero-game based on the same title, which in turn is a parody of the real-life bi-annual Comic Market convention.

Correction2: The supposed "fans" on those recorded videotapes are in actuality, members of GAINAX themselves....

Can you describe what you are looking for in more distinct detail? There are a lot of anime that fits your description and is too broad to generalize "anime about anime fans." From the top of my head, I can list:

"Nurse Witch Komugi-chan Magi-Karte"
"Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai"
"Mahou Yuugi"
"Comic Party"
"Otaku no Video"
"Keroro Gunso"
"Excel Saga"
"Puni Puni Poemi"
the upcoming anime "Genshiken"
