One way would be to use PerWorkspace layouts. Say your current layoutHook
is something like myLayout = avoidStruts $ foo ||| bar ||| .... and you
want only Full ||| Grid on the movie workspace:

import XMonad.Layout.PerWorkspace
  -- skipped
  , layoutHook = onWorkspace "vid" (Full ||| Grid) myLayout
  -- skipped

would give you no statusBars on the "vid" workspace, defaulting to
Full layout, toggling with Grid, then use myLayout for all other
workspaces. If you sometimes want to toggle on the status bars
even on "vid" that's doable to, but I'm thinking this will probably
meet your needs as is.
