Deposition method, deposition film, and method for producing organic electroluminescence display device

A vapor deposition method for forming a film in a predetermined pattern on a film formation substrate, the vapor deposition method comprising the steps of:

• (a) preparing a mask unit including:
• a vapor deposition mask having an opening;
• and
• a vapor deposition source provided so as to face the vapor deposition mask,
• the vapor deposition mask and the vapor deposition source being fixed in position relative to each other;
• (b) while moving at least a first one of the mask unit and the film formation substrate relative to a second one thereof, depositing vapor deposition particles, emitted from the vapor deposition source, through the opening onto a vapor deposition region of the film formation substrate;
• and
• (c) blocking, with use of a shutter member, a first portion of a vapor deposition flow of the vapor deposition particles which first portion travels toward a vapor deposition unnecessary region of the film formation substrate,
• wherein:
• during the step (c), the shutter member is adjusted in position so that the vapor deposition particles to be deposited onto the film formation substrate have a vapor deposition range having an end that coincides with a boundary region between the vapor deposition region and the vapor deposition unnecessary region.
