I, Joost Buitenweg, was born on May 24, 1967 in Amsterdam. After high school I auditioned at the drama school where I was rejected, and then followed the HBO study in acting methodology in which I graduated. During this study I auditioned with Toneelgroep Amsterdam for the play: 'Spring awakening', for which I wanted to be accepted. This play brought me to the attention of media and casting agents. After this 'discovery', I was the very first soap villain in the Netherlands for more than two years: Rien Hoogendoorn, in 'Good times, bad times'. After that you saw me in various series such as: 12 cities 13 accidents, The club, Women's wing, and he played in films in Belgium and England. But because the comedy side of acting has always appealed to me, I subsequently played in: Babysitting, The Sun in the House, My Daughter and I, Kees & Co, e

remarks
Since I have been (quite successfully) in front of and behind the camera, I have a good overview and insight into what happens in and during a production with both crew and cast. This has an impact on the choices I make during shooting and editing. Furthermore, I always look for challenges, am always focused on a good end product, am collegial, reliable and have a reasonable sense of humor.
