Episode III Set Diary was a feature on the Star Wars Hyperspace fan club website. Only accessible by paid Hyperspace members, the feature contained 127 on-location diary entries written by Pablo Hidalgo during the production of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith from May 24, 2003 to February 2, 2005. Several would also be released by Hidalgo after the release of the film.
With the 2011 revamp of StarWars.com, Hyperspace ceased to exist and all of its member-only content with it. However, a select amount of the Set Diaries would later be re-published for free on StarWars.com on May 20, 2025, commemorating the 20th anniversary of the release of Revenge of the Sith.[1]
