Provided is an alignment film having excellent light resistance and excellent alignment characteristics (function for regulating the alignment state of a liquid crystal material), and an alignment film capable of efficiently producing such an alignment film. Providing a forming method, and providing a substrate for an electronic device, a liquid crystal panel, and an electronic apparatus including the alignment film. The alignment film of the present invention is an alignment film that controls the alignment of liquid crystal molecules, and is composed of at least an organosilicon material. The organosilicon material has an improved affinity for liquid crystal molecules in the molecule. And an affinity imparting group for controlling the orientation of liquid crystal molecules. The affinity imparting group is at least one of a vinyl group, an alkylene group, and a cyanoalkyl group. The orientation-imparting group is at least one of a phenyl group, a substituted phenyl group, a phenylalkyl group, a substituted phenylalkyl group, and a branched alkyl group having 3 to 12 carbon atoms.
