Dean Fleischer Camp (born February 28, 1982) is an American author and filmmaker. He is best known for creating Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, and for directing the feature film of the same name in 2023. He also directed the 2024 live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch.
Marcel is an adorable one-inch-tall shell who ekes out a colorful existence with his grandmother Connie and their pet lint, Alan. Once part of a sprawling community of shells, they now live alone as the sole survivors of a mysterious tragedy. When a documentarian discovers them amongst the clutter of his Airbnb, his resulting short film brings Marcel millions of passionate fans, as well as unprecedented dangers and a new hope at finding his long-lost family.
