Provided is an exposure apparatus including a transporting section; a first polarized light output section that outputs first polarized light; a second polarized light output section that outputs second polarized light; a first mask section that has formed therein a first aperture section that passes the first polarized light for exposing an orientation film and blocks the first polarized light; and a second mask section that has formed therein a second aperture section that passes the second polarized light for exposing the orientation film and blocks the second polarized light. The first aperture section and the second aperture section are formed to expose a certain region of the orientation film in an overlapping manner.
