A method is provided for forming a color filter for a liquid crystal display apparatus which requires considerably reduced area on a transparent substrate for performing electrodeposition of the color filter. The method includes coating non-extended liquid crystal driving terminal portions with a protective film with a notch etched therein for exposing an end edge portion of the non-extended driving terminal; and coating the non-extended driving terminals with a transverse strip of conductive material to place the non-extended terminals into a conducting state.
