Overexposed windows with a dolly shot

Hi All:

 

I'm just wondering if any of you have suggestions for how to possibly color correct a shot better than what I'm doing. We shot in front of big glass windows that were bright. We did not use LOG (trying to remember why, but it didn't happen!!). 

 

I've attached three shots. Camera 1 was on a tripod, so here I didn't have too much trouble. I did four masks for each of the window panes within Lumetri and then brought the exposure down.

 

But with the moving dolly shot, I don't really know what to do. Do I do a tracking mask of some kind? But on what?  The four panes of the window? Feels like that's going to get real messy...have to adjust every 2-3 frames on each of the panes. 

 

Anyway, you can see in this short clip that in addition to the windows being hot, he's also a bit silhouetted. I've done some light correction, bringing down highlights primarily. Appreciate any suggestions!
