Here's my advice:
Write a screenplay of this great story you have. When done, get help from other people in cleaning up your script for a final draft.
Get as much footage from the prequels as you could possibly use for this.
Buy a camera.
Get a group of actors who look like the characters. (actually, the only likenesses that matter are Obi and Anakin)
Get a green screen
Find some locations.
Film them.
Have someone (ady?) help you with visual effects.
Win!
It may seem really hard, but it's more realistic than doing it as a fanedit. You could also revisit this idea in 20 years or so when technology is better. I like your idea, but this idea would need about 100 people working on it, and not just over the internet.
That's my two pence.
