Pretend I'm applying for a job with the original, originator himself, Walt Disney....add a mix of a Donald Trumpish type of guy and throw in a dash of Willy Wonka.......he's very easily bored, seen it all, and leans towards being in need of something dramatic. This is who I'm trying to work for/with.
I need help coming up with scenerios, ideas, concepts, etc. to get his attention and for him to know I'm serious about my need to collaborate with him. Oh sure, I've tried all the traditional methods....I've tried the front door, the back door, the chimney, humor, sarcasm, challenges, etc. Now I need help. This person has rented out Walt Disney World before so I'm very challenged. (financially as well)
Please give me your wildest thoughts on how to get someones attention, in a creative, positive way. Think scavenger hunt to prove creativity, passion and drive or something else, but try to leave my desperation out of it. :-D
I need that environment to feel whole........HELP!!

I should clarify; He doesn't live in one of the 5 top cities, he has a very small office, is low key, and has retained a very small crew of devoted employees, so it's hard to "break in". He's not famous but his creations have been visited by millions worldwide.
I need a unique and playful way to deliver my ideas and concepts to him. He knows who I am, but he's very guarded and busy with projects and obviously I lacked "wow" factor...not my ideas, my delivery. I'm looking for America's craziest ideas to capture his need to be humored and entertained.............let's say he's unique like Richard Branson of Virgin Airlines. It's a tough gig. Lay it on me people!!! Thanks

See the movie now in theatres: The Pursuit of Happyness, with Will Smith. It's based on a true story of a man who is struggling financially, but has a dream, and goes for his dream. He tried many times to get the attention of the head of a company, but it took time and smart methods. He eventually achieved his goal through some disappointments and hard work. This is an amazing story of someone who did not give up. Good luck to you.

SO let me get this straight.......this is for an application to a job you have already tried to get and have and no luck so far, right??
I want to be honest, maybe he is full staffed and if you take it too far he may think it is annoying or bothersome. You want to come off smart and opinionated but not arrogant or rude, and especially not crazy or stalker esque. You need a better way to get a foot in the door. Buddy up with someone who already works there, or offer to do an internship. You have to show him that you really want to be there even if you have to wait. You want to let him see that you will be an asset to his company.
Let him know at the end of whatever your period of internship you both agree to that if you have not proven your worth to the company that you will regrettably discontinue your life long goal of working for his company.
Good luck...keep your head up!!
