Introduction
Although we can locate communication as far as the 1970s, public communication
can today be linked to the democratic society. It is characterized from the point of view of
the communication by the rise to power of engaging public, explosion of communication
techniques, demand for transparency and increased importance of governance. It appeared
to the public authorities the need to communicate well, to better communicate, and to better
explain. In a context of various speeches, it had to make audible and intelligible the public
authorities discourse. A speech whose purpose is support the citizen in its fulfillment within
the society. This requirement is what we call today the right to information.
In addition, the public communication will contribute to a large extent to simplify
public organizations in the eyes of private companies who continue to impose their value
systems and th eir modalities of communication. Ridding the public organizations to
consolidate the rolein society. The public communication will thereforeplay the regulatory
role, contribute to social cohesion and the construction of national identities.
Public communication constitutes the vital link between the State and citizens. It is
a social cohesion tool as it facilitates a greater consistency between individual behaviors.
I DEFINITION AND FUNCTIONS
A-DEFINITION
According to Pierre Zemor. Public communication is formal communication
tending towards the exchange and sharing of public utility information as well as
maintaining social ties, and whose responsibility is vested on public institutions or
organizations s vested with missions of collective interest.
From this definition, we can apply the paradigm of Laswell (who said what, when, or how
and why)
1. Who: the State has that responsibility. Which means a commitment, an obligation of
exclusivity. Only the State has the right and duty to take on this mission. But it can delegate
this power to organizations.
2. What? Public utility information
3 - Why? Double purpose: Exchange and sharing of information, maintaining social bonds.
4 - How? Formal - It is a structured, and formally organized approach. It is a form of
communication within the public domain which is assumed by public institutions. It is
legitimatized by the general interest, public utility, the collective interest, maintaining the
3. 3[Date]
social link. It is a civic and pedagogic communication. There is no public Communication
that is not formal
N.B:
The general interest refers to the nature of the missions that are met by the State for the
satisfaction of citizens
Public Utility involves the legal recognition by the State of activities conducted by an
entity, an association or organization that confers a set benefits of any kind. The State
recognizes that these structures carry out activities of public utility
Collective interest refers to a general category interest, apply to a specific environment in
this case to communities territorial interventions.
In all, PC is revealed as a set of communication activities produced by the institutions and
public organizations aiming at transmitting and exchanging information in order to present
and explain decisions of public actions, promote their legitimacy, to defend values socially
admissible as necessary to general harmony.
B- THE FUNCTIONS OF PUBLIC COMMUNICATION.
1- Principal functions
There exist three principal functions
i) To contribute to the development of the sense of general interest and the spirit of public
service. Public communication needs to promote morality, the spirit of public service. This
is done through the information, the formation and the accompaniment of decisions taken.
A person working in the public sector does not have the same approach as the one in the
private sector because he is working towards general interest.
ii) To contribute to the development of the spirit of social reliance and the feeling of
collective achievement. I.e. participating toward the construction of a national identity,
development the feeling of belonging to the same entity and the same environment. We
have to think like one sole group. We have primary groups like our towns and villages and
in this case, it involves going beyond these groups or primary identities. This passes
through the formation towards citizenship responsibility (voting rights etc.) This will lead
to the defense and promotion of responsible behaviors and values (peace, solidarity, unity
etc.)
iii) Contribute to the structuring of public space. Public space is a place for public
expression, hence PC will contribute to organize citizen debates which will ameliorate
governance and promote creativity.
4. 4[Date]
2- Complimentary functions
i) Contribute to the amelioration of relationships between public authorities and citizens
through active listening. Hence it facilitates the listening to the citizen’s plights and
problems through the quality of reception.
ii) To contribute to the promotion of public organizations.
II- FORMS OF PUBLIC OMMUNICATION
There are 4 main forms
Social communication
Governmental communication
Public territorial communication
Promotional communication of services and functions
1- Social communication
This is the most know and practiced form of PC. It is the symbol of non-commercial
communication. Social com helps to achieve actions related to;
Public utility; Which entails citizen formation on all aspects of general interest
The modification of behaviors; heard here as the adoption of new and positive
behaviors or the abandonment of negative ones
The promotion of citizenship values related to the quality of public life
The information of citizens on legislative and regulatory dispositions
The promotion of functions, values, services and public organizations
Social communication is sub divided into 3 forms
Informative communication
Societal communication
Behavioral communication
a) Informative communication
The object of this communication is the presentation and explanation of the laws
and new elements or aspects on the rights and duties of citizens. This form of com is or
should be carried out by institutions like the national assembly and the senate.
b) Societal communication
5. 5[Date]
It is based on the promotion of great causes, citizenship values, public interest
causes. The sectors involved here include humanitarian causes like environmental
protection(deforestation), protection (minority rights, cultural values, national languages),
universal causes like peace, unity, solidarity etc.
c) Behavioral communication
This is based on the amelioration of individual and collective habits in order to better
both personal and national wellbeing (society at large) It is focused on the following
sectors; Health (fight against epidemics and pandemics, promotion of vaccination, fight
against drug abuse, promotion of physical education etc.), Security (domestic security
campaigns, road safety campaigns etc.), Economic domain (fiscal civilization i.e. payment
of taxes, consumer protection, fight against waste etc.). The objective of this
communication is measured in quality terms.
II- Governmental Communication
Governmental communication stems from public communication because it aims at
informing on public action and explaining it. Usually considered as part of political
communication, the information aspect of it makes it to rather fall under public
communication.
The actors of governmental communication include
The spokesperson of the government (MINCOM)
The members of government (ministers)
Communication services (CELCOM)

PRODUCTION AUDIOVISUELLE (AP)
It is a process of manufacturing of an audiovisual product which could be put on two main
supports; Video supports (CD, DVD, USB keys, also known as immaterial supports), and
cinema supports (film or pellicule in french).
AP as a process is made up of 3 stages
1- Preproduction
It is the preparatory phase in which the story is written, technical break down is done, cost
evaluated and searched, technical teams constituted, the casting chosen etc. It involves all
the preliminary work towards the actual shooting of the film.
2- Production
This is the phase inwhich all the visual and sound elements are registered (actual shooting).
Generally, the dialogues are not registered during the shooting but are added in the studio.
3- Post production
It is the phase of film editing (montage), the film is mounted up, sound and graphic effects
included to give the final product. After the production, all the images are transported from
the immaterial supports (hard drive) to a server. Then we do the derushage (watching of
the raw images from the shoot) and finally the editing is carried out.
Assignment: The different audiovisual jobs (I believe u did it)
There are two major types of production; light (legere) and heavy (lourde)
production.
Light production as the name implies involves a minimum requirements for
production (1camera, 1 sound recorderetc.). This was mostly used in the past where
cameras were separated from the recorders.
Heavy production is more complex as it necessitatesmore equipment and materials.
At least 2 cameras, 2 microphones etc. hence it is more costly.
TYPES OF VIDEO PRODUCTION
In a company, we could be called upon to realize the following types of video productions:
1- Event film: This is the immortalizing or video taping of an event organized by the
company.
2- Reportage: A mixture of a corporate film and interview, it entails giving a maximum
amount of information on the company stressingon expertise and pedagogy. It presents the
company through the testimony of clients.
7. 7[Date]
3- Film publicitaire: It is a classical advert but usually longer than a spot. The advertising
film is a form of communication that has the function to promote a product, activity, a
company, an event or personality by realizing a video which take account target public in
other to convey an information, generate it interest.
4- Sales ofproduct video: Using a comedian or commentator to present products orservices
5-Product video: Filming a product under different angles to present the different forms or
usage. It is usually accompanied by a commentary.
6- Interview: Filming an individual who passes a message on the company, her products

GESTION DES MARQUES
INTRODUCTION
For several years, the value of a company was measured according to his tangible
goods. The up rise of completion made the managers of companies to understand that its
value does not reside in material goods. Another value seemed important as well which
was not found in the equipment but in the goods produced, the quality of these product and
its components.
Interest was later shifted to the purchase decision of consumers because what
pushed them to buy a product once the quality was recognized was the name of the product
they retained, memorized and stored in their sub conscious.
Going from the principle that a consumer cannot carry with him the thousands of
pds proposed, they needed to find something that the will carry alongside with him as a
reference each time he displaces himself. This reference was found in the name of the
product, because the name of a product represents the product and this representation is
done through the image.
An image can be a visual, tactile, sound, olfactory and gustative representation. It
has both a material and mental function. Due to this representation, it has a sense and if it
has a sense, it therefore has a significance. The significance is a semantic dimension of the
sense. In short, the sense stands for the conceptual content of an expression. The
significance is the result of a sign.
There are 3 categories of signs, the icon, the mark (indice) and the symbol. The icon
a relationship of analogy with what it represents ex a drawing, a photography. The mark
has a relationship of physical contiguity with what it represents ex smoke and fire. The
symbol has a conventional relationship with what it represents ex road signals.
The image is also something that speaks, a language and that language is a message
that marks. It impregnates in and stays in the memory during our communications.
12. 12[Date]
Marketing technicians thus found what they were looking for, help consumers to displace
themselves transporting products in their memories. From the name of the product, we
arrived at the product brand.
The brand marks!!!She can decline itself under different possibilities from the concept of
image. The brand sends back to the image thus. Its force comes from the fact that the image
has:
〤 7 sensations
〤 6 emotions
〤 3 information
〤 3 resonances
On the financial plan, the notion of product has evolved to that of the brand due to the
search of financial gain. In fact, the trend went thus;
〤 1950= name – packaging – design – claim
〤 1960= name – packaging – design – etiquette – claim
〤 1970= name – packaging – design – etiquette – publicity – after sales services -
brand
〤 1980= brand – product – name - etiquette – packaging - design –– publicity – after
sales services – client relationship management.
The capital of a company is from there henceforth its brand and its aim is to build it,
launch it, promote, reinforce, perpetuate it and manage it around a strong and positive
image.
Q: How will a company impose its products on those of competitors/
A: By giving it a name which should be legally protected, which becomes a brand and is
the link between the company and its customers. This brand needs to be managed, hence:
Brand management. This leads to new jobs like brand managers who need brand strategies
to establish customer loyalty.
THE NOTION OF BRAND
DEFINITION
1-The dictionary Quillet defines the brand like a particular sign put on an object to
distinguish it from others. It is also a sign that is printed on an object indicating its place of
manufacturing, the manufacturer’s name, attesting that the rights to which it was submitted
have been perceived.
13. 13[Date]
2-Commercial definition
Considered as brand are fabrics, commerce, all services, patron names, geographical
names, arbitrary or fantasy denominations, the characteristic form of the product or its
conditioning, etiquettes, envelops, emblems, vignette, stamps, posters, loin edges,
combinations and dispositions of colors, forms, drawings, reliefs, letters, numbers, mottos
etc. In general all material signs that help to distiguish products, objects or services of any
enterprise. From the French Civic Code, article 1 of law no 64/34 of 31st December 1964
3- Marketing def.
The brand is a sign of product recognition composed of a verbal name or a set of visual
elemets aimed at personifying the product inorder to distinguish, identify and locate it.
From Ghannam Zaim Ouaffa- Le Marketing au Maroc; Concept et Realite.
3- Philip Kotler considers that a brand is a name, a sign, a symbol, a drawing or the
combination of all of this which helps to identify the goods and services of a seller or a
group of sellersand to differentiate them from competitors. – Glossary of Marketing Terms
4- The National Institute of Industrial Property (INPI in France) defines the brand as a
distictif sign which helps a physical or moral person to distinguish its products from those
of third parties.
NB: For a name to become a brand, it has to be legally registered. Add to Kotlers def.
THE IDENTITY OF A BRAND
It is the promise made by to the consumer which possesses aset of real and objective xtics,
very essential and including;
1- A set of attributes which evoke the xtics which are directly attached to it. Ex Mercedez
brand has xtics such as durable, expensive, comfortable, luxurious etc.
2- It is a set of functional and emotional advantages which it communicates to the clients.
Ex the durability of the brand means I can use it for many years. Solidity means in case of
accidents, I am safe.
3-The brand is a set of enterprise values which express a certain enterprise culture. Ex
Mercedez translates a performing, modern and prestigious company
4- It is also a set of cultural values which express the origine of the cultural affiliation of a
country.
5-The brand is a set of elements grouped round a certain personality. Mercedez translates
the lifestyle of Germans which is dominance, exigence etc.
14. 14[Date]
6- It translate the profile of users.
The brand is thus a signature, a name given to a product or a company, legally
registered. It is one of the elements of marketing strategies which helps to identify a product
and to personify it in order to concretize its difference. The attributes given to it are
elements that will define its positioning and its perception by the consumer.
3- THE FUCTIONS AND ROLES OF A BRAND
A- To the Consumer
It facilitates the management of rapid information on the product
Adds and reinforces the clients confidence during purchase decisions
Contributes to the satisfaction of the usage of the product.
A product possesses 3 types of values, Values of usage, esteem and fantasy.
B- To the Producer
Helps to easily identify the product from those of competitors, linked to notoriety
studies or being compared during purchase- Identification tool.
Helps to distinguish new product ranges for production- positioning tool.
Helps to engage in the competition struggle for reputation. Competition tool.
From the above, we see that a brand needs to be strong to be effective because, a strong
brand is:
- A sure advantage in terms of marketing efficiency, customer loyalty, possibility of of
increasing benefits, extension of the brand and geographical regions etc.
- A strong brand is a tool of negotiation in distribution networks.
4- PRINCIPAL QUALITIES OF A BRAND
A brand needs to have the following qualities:
1) Evoke the products universe and its positioning.

3) It should be comprehensible and acceptable in all languages.
15. 15[Date]
4) Easy to memorize, graphically usable to brand products or exploited during advertising
campaigns in media.
5) Should be evolving with time to permit brand extension.
5- TYPES OF BRANDS
There are 2 main types
A- PROBUCER BRANDS
These are brands created by the produces themselves
i) Caution brands
Consists in giving to each product different brand names but having a (family tie) which
evokes their common origin and gives a common reassurance to the entire brand. Also
called marque a declinaison. Ex Danone products have Danette, Danino, Dany, Danao etc.
ii) Double brand
It consists of giving 2 brand names to a product, the 1st being common to all products, the
2nd being the surname helps in the construction of a specific image and different from other
ones. Hence, it is a mother and daughter brand. Ex Toyota
iii) Range brand
Formula used for all the products belonging to the same universe without being
complementary. They thus benefit from the same image. Ex Moulinex
iv) Line brand
Considers a product line as a complementary element. Ex the line Capture of Christian
Dior
v) La Marque Ombrelle
A same brand is used to commercialisedifferent products. Ex Peugeot commercializes both
cars, bicycles, etc.
vi) Product brand
Associates a product to a brand or positioning. Ex Procter and Gamble has brands like
Ariel, Ajax, Dash etc.
B- DISTRIBUTOR BRANDS
16. 16[Date]
These are brands created and possessedby distributors themselves. A distributor is a moral
person who possesses a label (enseigne) and whose objective is to put at the disposal of
consumers the products they need. The shop can be a brand Ex CASINO.
Distributor brands evolve with the modernization of distribution. Among these, we have;
i) Captive brand
Consists in using the labels brand to propose products. Ex Casino, Leader price, Wal Mart.
They are also called Flag brands.
ii) Label brand
Helps to elevate the quality level of products. It is inspired by competition between labels.
iii) La marque proper
Born from the desire to extend the offer which pushes distributors to sell their products
under different brands. Ex Gourmet, Bio, Bien etre all all Mono prix brands.
iv) First price brands
Formula used by discounters ex Leader price, Lanmark, U etc.
V) Specific brands
Consists of using a brand different from that of the label (enseigne). Similar to the marque
proper.
COLLECTIVE BRANDS (LABELS)
These are brands that testify of an advantage brought to consumers. Labels usually result
from the amalgamation of independent organisms or non-producers. The brands are not
necessarily of quality. Ex le Poivre de Penja. There are 3 types of labels.
i) Expérientiel labels : Labels that bring information on quality of experience of the
consumers. Ex the UGC label
ii) Technical labels: They give assurance on the technical characteristics of production. Ex
NF- Norme francaise, AB- in France for bio agricultural products.
iii) Technical and experiential labels: Associates the 2 other dimensions of a label. Ex label
Rouge in France.
A GRIFFE (Stamp)
17. 17[Date]
A griffe is a name, set of initials (sigle) which belongs to a manufacturer or an artist
(creator). It is an inspired and instinctive mark of a creator. It is a sort of creation that sends
back to unpredictability. The model of reference is handicraft.
6-BRAND POLICY
In the policy of creation of a product, the last component is the choice of the brand. This is
known as the brand policy. Producers and disstributors usually have 2 choices;
Produce under one or many different brands belonging to them or produce without a brand.
In the 2 cases, they are faced with several advantages and disadvantages.

OBJET PUBLICITAIRE AFRICAIN ET EVENEMENTIEL
By definition, Publicity object is every object, element, every being in the world which can
be used for publicity ends.
Advertising
Etymologically, advertising is the art of rendering public. The 1st aim of publicity is to
inform because no one can buy something that he does not know.
In 1996, a Cameroonian university professor published a book titled Un Regard Africain
Sur La Communication. This book was based on the existence and essence of African
communication. The existence of such a communication was greatly questioned because
they don’t talk of American or European communication. This book inaugurates the
literature on communication in Africa because studies on the subject started lately in 1970
by people like Franck Ugboadja, Ferdinand Fiofini and others, notably in West Africa.
Beyond presenting the practice and means of communication in Africa, the book tries to
give a model in Africa

E= This is the source of the message. According to Laswell, it is either a moral or physical
person. In the African context, it can be a physical or metaphysical person ie a spirit, a
totem, dead person etc.
S= Support. It replaces the media in Laswells scheme. It is a set of objects varying
according to different cultures which can be used to transmit a message.
MS= Message transmitted
CO= Code: 2 types of codes; Symbolic codes which include signs and symbols and
syntagmatic codes which deals with speech.
MD= Modality: It is synonym to objective. According to Fame Ndongo, it has 2 aspects ie
qualification and disqualification. Qualification involves all the acts or actions that are
beneficial to man ex marriage, blessing etc.
R= Receiver: Could be a person from the physical or metaphysical world like the sender.
AN EVENT
It is a buildup which mobilizes actors and elements around an idea. In the African context,
an event is a buildup which can be considered in the form of a ritual.
CASE STUDY THE RITUAL OF SO
Pierre Stoll believes that this rite aims at transforming an adolescent into a complete man.
Pr Dominique Mvogo in his thesis criticizes Stoll’s idea that the SO is the totemic animal
of the beti (antelope) because the beti people do not carry its name. The SO is a very
powerful and intelligent animal, very agile and fast. As such by giving the name of the
ritual SO (antelope), the beti people wanted to produce the image that becoming a young
man is to be strong, fast and rapid and capable of defending his tribe.

20. 20[Date]
To other researchers, the SO ritual is a place of violence which develops in the youths the
qualities necessary for the military. This point of view is contested by Charles Atangana,
Supreme chief of the Ewondos who developed a view point different from all those
mentioned above. According to him, the rite is sorely meant for penitence and purification.
This is equally the stand of Fr. Pierre Mvienna.
This ritual was only organized when a member of the community had violated the rules of
the community. Soter Azombo listed the number of faults that could lead to the rite
including
Incest between parent and chidren
Muder of a parent
Violation of the place of initiation by a non-initiated
Theft
Insults to the alms collector in view of the rite
Revelation of the mystery of SO
The choice of the candidate of the rite was usually between the descendants of the guilty
or closed family in case he did not have any descendants.
Choice of the place of SO
After examining the aptitude of the candidates chose, those retained were to sojourn in the
forest with the initiation masters. Distance from the village symbolized the brutal rupture
with family affection and adolescence. During the initiation, candidates were allowed to
throw insults at their mothers with vulgar language even insulting their genitals to show
total rupture from mother care.
CREATION DES SITES WEBS
A website is a set of HTML documents linked to each other by hypertext links, stored on
a web server and accessible through the internet.
I- INTEREST OF A WEBSITE
The conception of a website can be motivated by many reasons:
1- Need for visibility: A website which is accompanied by a good promotional campaign
can be a means by an organization to increase its visibility.
21. 21[Date]
