Masato Ishioka (石岡正人, Ishioka Masato^?) is a Japanese director, screenwriter and business executive who had an early career as an adult video (AV) director.

Masato Ishioka was born in 1960 in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. He attended Meiji University, graduating in 1983 with a major in Politics and Economics. In 1984 he began working as an apprentice to Tadashi Yoyogi at the AV studio Athena Eizou. He stayed at the studio for six years as an assistant director and video production manager. In August 1986 he was assistant director for Hikaru Kitoh (鬼闘光), a co-founder of Athena Eizou, in the Nikkatsu film The Orgasm (ザ・絶頂感, Za Zecchokan^?).

By the mid-1990s, Ishioka was working as a director in the softcore V-cinema field, including directing three entries in the Chikan hakusho (痴漢白書^?) series for the Pink Pineapple (ピンクパイナップル^?) company. At the same time, he was also involved as a director in the hardcore AV business, working for Athena Eizou and the Atlas21 studio including several videos in the "Violent Lips" series. In 1996, Ishioka founded his own video production company, Gold View Company Ltd, to produce and sell mainstream movies in Japan and abroad for himself and other directors.
