[shell] Redirect echo output in shell script to logfile

I have a shell script with lots of echo in it. I would like to redirect the output to a logfile. I know there is the command call cmd > logfile.txt, or to do it in the file echo 'xy' > logfile.txt, but is it possible to simply set the filename in the script which then automatically writes all echo's to this file?

You can easily redirect different parts of your shell script to a file (or several files) using sub-shells:

{
  command1
  command2
  command3
  command4
} > file1
{
  command5
  command6
  command7
  command8
} > file2

#!/bin/sh
# http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/io-redirection.html
echo "Hello World"
exec > script.log 2>&1
echo "Start logging out from here to a file"
bad command
echo "End logging out from here to a file"
exec > /dev/tty 2>&1 #redirects out to controlling terminal
echo "Logged in the terminal"

Output:

> ./above_script.sh                                                                
Hello World
Not logged in the file
> cat script.log
Start logging out from here to a file
./logging_sample.sh: line 6: bad: command not found
End logging out from here to a file

LOG_LOCATION="/path/to/logs"    
exec >> $LOG_LOCATION/mylogfile.log 2>&1

I tried to manage using the below command. This will write the output in log file as well as print on console.

#!/bin/bash

# Log Location on Server.
LOG_LOCATION=/home/user/scripts/logs
exec > >(tee -i $LOG_LOCATION/MylogFile.log)
exec 2>&1

echo "Log Location should be: [ $LOG_LOCATION ]"

Please note: This is bash code so if you run it using sh it will through syntax error
