How to rename fields in bags

How can i rename fields inside a bag. I already found the way to project the fields, but i can't rename them.

For example:

renamed = FOREACH named GENERATE
   field0,
   elements.(
      field1,
      field2 
   );

If i try the following, i got an error:

renamed = FOREACH named GENERATE
   field0,
   elements.(
      field1 AS renamed1,
      field2 
   );

The error message is the following

2014-06-10 08:34:14,701 [main] ERROR org.apache.pig.tools.grunt.Grunt - ERROR 1200: <line 233, column 16>  mismatched input 'AS' expecting RIGHT_PAREN

You need to place the AS clause after your definition of the bag. Try this instead:

renamed = FOREACH named GENERATE
   field0,
   elements.(
      field1
      field2 
   ) AS bagName:{(renamed1, renamed2)};
