How redirect script output from inside of script?

Is it possible to redirect a script output by command inside of that script?

I mean, if I have a script 'dosome.sh' I could run it by
Code:
>dosome.sh > dosome.log

I would dream to get some command inside of scrip to do the same; so, running the dosome.sh would have all output redirected to a log file

(Do not advise, please, put redirection to a log file from every command of that script. It is already unrealistical.)
So I would image something like that:
Code:
#! /usr/bin/bash
 
<redirection command>

....
.... script body
....
# end of script

Iven would be greate to be able to do it the same as it would be done with 'tee' command: to have the output be written to file and in the same time to standard output, to screen, like in this command:
Code:
>dosome.sh | tee dosome.log

Appreciate any advice!

SETUID(1)                                                     General Commands Manual                                                    SETUID(1)

NAME
setuid - run a command with a different uid. SYNOPSIS
setuid username|uid command [ args ] DESCRIPTION
Setuid changes user id, then executes the specified command. Unlike some versions of su(1), this program doesn't ever ask for a password when executed with effective uid=root. This program doesn't change the environment; it only changes the uid and then uses execvp() to find the command in the path, and execute it. (If the command is a script, execvp() passes the command name to /bin/sh for processing.) For example, setuid some_user $SHELL can be used to start a shell running as another user. Setuid is useful inside scripts that are being run by a setuid-root user -- such as a script invoked with super, so that the script can execute some commands using the uid of the original user, instead of root. This allows unsafe commands (such as editors and pagers) to be used in a non-root mode inside a super script. For example, an operator with permission to modify a certain protected_file could use a super command that simply does: cp protected_file temp_file setuid $ORIG_USER ${EDITOR:-/bin/vi} temp_file cp temp_file protected_file (Note: don't use this example directly. If the temp_file can somehow be replaced by another user, as might be the case if it's kept in a temporary directory, there will be a race condition in the time between editing the temporary file and copying it back to the protected file.)
