If you have a desktop use the NetworkManager to set your static IP.
Click on the Up/Down Arrows on the -> Advanced Options -> Edit
Connections, select the wired connection you want to change and then
click the IPv4 tab and set a static IP address.
 

What is the path to NetworkManager? It's present if I run it
from the command line, but that doesn't bring up any dialogs,
it only reports that it's running and turns off WiFi 8-(

 

If you don't have a desktop use nmtui from the command line.  It has a
character interface similar to raspi-config.  If you need further
instructions on nmtui, post again.

Nmtui seems closer to what I was looking for. Basically I need to
set a special IP, connect the bridge, log into the bridge and set
it up using a browser, then either set a static IP or use DHCP.

I think you've got me on the correct foot, thank you!
