When confronted with some similar Epic HDRx footage, I got ok results by luma keying the highlights footage in. Low tech, but it worked!

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.)
