Premiere/After Effects problems

Hello,

I have finished editing a 29.97 frame rate 2 minute long sequence that contains about 30 clips (in premiere pro).  I need to color correct the entire thing and add a motion graphic to just one of the clips & I have not added sound yet.  I'm new to both of these applications and feeling confused on my work flow.  Is there a way to color correct my footage in adobe after effects, do one motion graphic, and then send it back to premiere pro to work on sound? 

I tried clicking on clips in premiere using the "replace with after effects composition" and sending them individually to after effects to do hue/saturation and selective color but when I return back to premiere and render the clip I find that I can't seem to alter the newly altered after effects edited clip without the footage freezing.  Why is it that I can't make any cuts to the  footage I edited in after effects and sent back to premiere?

Ok. So ... why do you wanna to make color correction in AE? PPro is more than capable to do that so do that in PPro by using one adjustment layer on all clips or if you need to do that one by one do that, and as for motion graphics - just send that one clip to AE for that by using what you were using (replace with ae comp).

+1. Keep everything in Premiere except what absolutely needs to be built in AE. It will be considerably faster and easier.
Look up a few tutorials on the Lumetri panel in Premiere - the workflow is pretty intuitive once you understand the controls.
