Subject: HDR-esque technique for high-speed footage

I've got some footage from a Photron high speed camera that's presented an interesting challenge to me. The camera records a sequence of images that have a 48 bit depth, which is a large dynamic range. On export to QuickTime, however, you are forced choose a bracketed range of 8 bits. After multiple exports, I'm left with a movie that's underexposed, one that's properly exposed, and one that's overexposed. I want to combine then, HDR-style, to show the details in the highlights. (The footage is a series of explosions, so there's a lot going in the highlights.)

Any tips for stacking the footage in AE?

Thanks!
