Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus includes a film forming chamber in which a film is formed on a substrate, and a movable member configured to support a mask or both the mask and the substrate in an internal space of the film forming chamber and be movable. Before the film is formed on the substrate, in a state in which the substrate conveyed to the internal space of the film forming chamber by a substrate conveying mechanism is separated from the mask supported by the movable member, the movable member moves so as to reduce an alignment error between the substrate and the mask and then supports the substrate. The movable member moves to a predetermined position after the substrate is supported by the movable member and before the substrate is taken out from the film forming chamber by the substrate conveying mechanism.
