Jiro Shirasaki (白崎 治郎,   Shirasaki Jirō) is a Japanese art director. He worked as an assistant under Yasuyuki Inoue on a number of Toho's tokusatsu productions between the 1960s and 70s.

Recommended the job by a friend, Shirasaki joined Toho part-time while at university after having performed with his band at Toho Studios' club.[1] Shirasaki worked on his first film, Mothra, in 1961,[1] and continued to be involved with Toho until the early 1970s. Following Inoue's departure from the company in 1971, Shirasaki was responsible for refurbishing the body of King Ghidorah's suit for Godzilla vs. Gigan in 1972.[2] He, alongside modeler Nobuyuki Yasumaru, also made at least one guest appearance as a panelist on the 1971 daytime television series, Chibikko Special.[3]
