The musical duo, already with several CDs to their name, sought to create a new digital identity to promote their music and upcoming events. Breaking Orbit delivered a forward-thinking design featuring semi-transparent navigation and static background elements\u2014an innovative approach at a time when such features were not yet widely supported by web technology.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WorldMaking.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WorldMaking.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">Worldmaking &#8211; 2004<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Breaking Orbit was hired by Rich Colligan of The River\u2019s Voice to create a website for his website to support his Theology thesis work. The primary challenge for this website was to design an audio player that could be used to play tracks like a jukebox. The player was custom designed using Flash, and allowed for any MP3 to be loaded into the directory for automatic playback on the site. The player also pulled MP3 data to present the song title as part of the layout. As with The River\u2019s Voice site, this technology was created before it became a popular trend.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/NicolasBearde.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/NicolasBearde.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">Nicolas Bearde &#8211; 2004<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Nicolas Bearde is a solo musician who has also performed as a part of Bobby McFerrin\u2019s Voicestra.

This redesign would include the ability to allow for online course registration and payment as well as provide a central location for apprentices and journeymen to access other services provided by the department.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-03.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-03.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOR Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2012<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Interactive Math Refresher course built as a part of the department website<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-01.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-01.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2012<\/h2><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-LMS-01.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-LMS-01.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2012<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Mid-2012, Breaking Orbit began work on installing a Moodle Learning Management system (LMS) that would eventually be home to all of the online courses for the Training Department. To save the department approximately $10k per month, the LMS was migrated from a hosted solution to one that the Training Department hosted and managed. All of the existing courses were migrated to the new platform and all of the existing student transcripts were migrated. The new Online Learning Center was linked to the Training Department website with a single-sign in system, allowing students to login in a central location and have that login persist to the Learning Center. With the launch of this system, the department was now able to offer registration and payment for online courses and enrollment within a 24-hour period to those course following membership verification. During the next 3 years, Breaking Orbit would also create the initial 30 online courses.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-LMS-01-1.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-LMS-01-1.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2012<\/h2><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Retuning-02.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Retuning-02.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2013<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">In 2013, the Local 39 Training Department was issued a grant by the Department of Energy to create a Building Retuning course for medium- to small-sized commercial spaces. This course was intended to expand on the content that the Department of Energy was already using for its own online course for larger commercial spaces. Breaking Orbit was asked to set up a standalone iteration of the same Moodle LMS (open-source) with a customized front-end. The Retuning course would be the only one offered on this platform, but the course would also link later to an online tool that would allow students to gauge their energy improvements while taking the course.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Retuning-01.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Retuning-01.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2013<\/h2><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-Bluebook.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IUOE-Bluebook.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">IUOE Local 39 Training Department &#8211; 2013<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Breaking Orbit was tasked with managing a project to create and implement an online Blue Book utility for the Local 39 Training Department as a part of its Apprenticeship program. The tool requirements were extensive. Initially, the tool was intended to allow apprentices to enter their work hours relating to their Apprenticeship. Because there were multiple programs comprising the Apprenticeships, additional categories for hours worked had to be accommodated on a per-student basis. Chief Engineers or Supervisors had to be able to login and approve reported hours, locking those hours to further changes by a student. Reports had to be created to allow students, chiefs, and admins the ability to analyze the data being provided. In 2013, Breaking Orbit launched the first iteration of the Blue Book. Changes to the project were made regularly over the next two years.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/wordsToPlayWith.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/wordsToPlayWith.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">Words to Play With<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Breaking Orbit was asked to provide a simple but elegant site for a copy editor seeking new clients.<\/p><div class=\"eb-slider-button-wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-item content-2\" data-src=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WestBerkeleyFencing.png\"><div><img class=\"eb-slider-image\" data-lazy=\"https:\/\/breakingorbit.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/WestBerkeleyFencing.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"eb-slider-content align-left\"><h2 class=\"eb-slider-title\">West Berkeley Fencing Club<\/h2><p class=\"eb-slider-subtitle\">Breaking Orbit was tasked with the creation of the first website for West Berkeley Fencing Club.
