A method for producing a color filter involves (a) forming a positive photosensitive coating film on a transparent electrically conductive layer of a transparent substrate; (b) forming a light-irradiated region where a light irradiation amount is different in two steps; (c) developing a larger light-irradiated portion to lay-open the transparent electrically conductive layer followed by electrodepositing a light shielding layer thereon; (d) forming on the positive photosensitive coating film undeveloped in the step (c) a light-irradiated region where a light irradiation amount is different in two steps; (e) developing a larger light-irradiated portion of the photosensitive coating film to lay-open the transparent electrically conductive layer followed by electrodepositing a colored coating thereon; (f) forming on the positive photosensitive coating film undeveloped in the step (e) a light-irradiated region where a light irradiation amount is different in at least three steps; and (g) developing the photosensitive coating film to lay-open the transparent electrically conductive layer followed by electrodepositing a colored coating thereon, operation of the developing and electrodepositing being sequentially repeated at least twice in decreasing light irradiation amounts.
