Abstract: An exposure method is provided, in which when exposure is performed using a photomask having a plurality of mask patterns, various mask patterns corresponding to various different color filters are exposed in different regions on a substrate, without moving the photomask to an irradiation area in an exposure device.

A light beam from a light source is selectively directed to the first mask pattern while transferring the substrate, to continuously expose a resist in a first region, and the light beam from the light source is selectively directed to the second mask pattern while transferring the substrate, to continuously expose a resist in a second region.
