I bought a hollywood juniper that has a good nebari but i dont know what to do with the foilage. Guidance with the style would be appreciated. All the foilage is upright and spread out with a long main branch that tapers out to the side.

Do you have a style in mind already?
Seems interesting to try clump style; I think I already see a couple of trees in there.

For now I would focus on getting the lower branches back to health. You are about to loose all the lower branches due to light-shortage. So decide how big you want your three to be, and remove most of the branches above it. Also, you could consider thinning the dense foliage on top so the lower branches get more light.
For a good asssesment of the tree, perhaps you can take a few pictures from different sides? Best would be to find someone local to look at the tree with you, as 2D and 3D are very different beasts.
