Was the 'a-Ha - Take on Me' video, inspired by this, vice versa, or just coincidence?

Well considering both were made around the same time... Probably just coincidence.

takashi nakamura did the entire scene
Nice to get some confirmation for such an iconic scene.
Huh, interesting.

Does anyone know who did the color cuts right before this? I'm trying to find a non hardsubbed version of that and put it up here, and I'd

I'd initially heard that Nakamura did the color parts and Morimoto did the B&W, but evidently that's not right. Is it the other way around, or did Nakamura do that too?
in this interview we have Morimoto confirming that he did the scene ( although he didn't mention Nakamura and which part he did ) :
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interview/2015-09-29/koji-morimoto/.93504
but at least we know for sure that he was part of it.
+ we also have this interview : http://www.style.fm/as/01_talk/morimoto02.shtml
it's not very helpful but at least he mentioned nakamura and himself.
yeah and don't blame me for opening this topic again .. blame ANN for the interview :(
edit : my point is : nakamura didn't animate the entire scene ( by entire scene i mean the black and white part and the colored part ) + i'm quite interested in knowing which part was done by Morimoto and what was done by nakamura
let's make it clear.
Morimoto misremembered in the interview with Yuichiro Oguro about the black and white part.
In Evan Minto's interview, the color images reminded him .THAT colored part was done by Morimoto ,that's correct.
But how about the bw ? Thanks to bahi jd , when he worked with Morimoto , he asked him all this confusion in person. Morimoto said that is all Nakamura's . You can find it in bahi jd's twitter

澄清一下,都是森本在和小黑的采访中记错了。其实后来森本才记清楚,在Minto的采访中说了彩色的摩托片段才是他。而最后bahi jd亲自确认了,森本说黑白这段不是他,全部是中村孝的。
