How to create a Clipping Mask and Export Jpegs from Illustrator

Here is quick video tutorial on how to create a Clipping Mask and how to export a jpeg in Illustrator. A clipping mask will allow you to show just what is inside of the document size of your art board. Any art elements that go outside of the boarders of the art board (document size) will be clipped off.
To 'save' your Illustrator image in a raster/ pixel format you must File --> EXPORT (not Save As).
