Originally when Halo Legends, the series of anime shorts, was announced, the role of Ghost In The Shell director Mamoru Oshii was unknown.
To clarify, Oshii will be the creative director for Halo Legends. He will not be directing either of the two Projection I.G. episodes, but Appleseed director Shinji Aramaki will be.
Oshii is a Creative Director of Halo Legends, Not Episode Director [ANN]
