Your setup compiled but did not work, even after bracketing the commands. I still get no font changes:
============================================== % output=pdf interface=en
%\setupfootnotes[before=\ss,after=\sc] \setupfootnotes[{style=\ss},{textstyle=\sc}]
\starttext
This is a test.\footnote{This is a test}
\stoptext ==============================================
Don't bracket them, and the blank command parameters also play a role (to over-ride the \high command, in case you have superior figures, for example). Also, keep in mind that the particular font switches you chose are not very visible in LMR with a single '1' character. Try: \setupfootnotes[style=italic,textcommand=,command=,textstyle=boldslanted]
Caveat: My up-to-date (well, before the latest beta) is at home and I'm at work with an older ConTeXt. OTOH but this is not a new feature so should work...
Au contraire, Hans gave footnote styles a big overhaul last summer, iirc. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
