I am wondering if someone can help me learn how to acheive this: 

 

I need to recreate this for a logo. 

 

Am I just overlooking this and it's actually something so simple?   I have tried perspective and warp but it's just not turning out right. 

 

Thank you for your help!

As Kurt mentioned, Text on a path and Options are your friend.

 

To help you out, here are a few steps I did for this example.

 

Set your area text, larger tracking. Paragraph, center align

Draw an ellipse. Only need half.

Create Text on Path

Finally Type>Type on Path>Skew.

I attached a logo I'm working on (page 03. world) that I want the text to wrap around the sphere like the Universal logo does in the jpeg I also attached. Would you know how to create text that has the perspective of wrapping/revolving around a sphere? Like the Universal Studios logo? I want looking directly eye level at the type, not looking up at it, like in the Universal logo.

Make a dummy cylinder and apply the text as artwork to it with the 3D effects (the classic ones)

Which version of Illustrator are you using?

 

Have you already explored all the ways you can go with Type on a Path objects?

Yes, I have done Type on the path but the angles and perspectives are still
off.
