Write screenplays in the style of Ozu Yasujiro and Noda Kogo, distilled from six classic Japanese films.

What is screenwriting-skills?

This skill enables AI agents to generate screenplays that authentically emulate the collaborative style of acclaimed Japanese filmmaker Yasujiro Ozu and screenwriter Kogo Noda. It extracts core narrative techniques from six of their complete screenplays, including 'Late Spring', 'Early Summer', 'Tokyo Story', 'Floating Weeds', 'Late Autumn', and 'An Autumn Afternoon'. The skill covers key storytelling devices such as the 'family member leaves' master plot, off-screen events triggering on-screen reactions, lie-driven plots, minimal-syllable confessions, go-between characters, faceless suitors, pillow-shot scene breaks, echoing objects, mirror characters, and children's subplots used as meta-commentary. It is designed for use with AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, providing structured guidance for writing authentic Ozu-esque narratives.
